Roasted Teriyaki Salmon
I ordered two of these. Salmon was perfectly cooked in one but dry in the other. Veggies were fine, a little under seasoned. Teriyaki sauce would have been better if reduced to a thicker texture.

Roasted Teriyaki Salmon
veggies need cooked more. teriyaki sauce could be thicker to stay on the salmon, instead of having the rice swimming in it.
