Herb-and-Yogourt Baked Whole Salmon Fillet

[0 SP per serving] Right off, you read that correctly, 0 SP per serving. No that is not a typo, it is real. I love salmon, and I really love baked salmon in a creamy dill sauce; unfortunately, creamy dill sauce is a points killer. With this recipe and Weight Watchers Freestyle, this little gem is back on the menu!
