LET'S GET COOKING!
Preheat oven to 400° F.

Roast for 15-20 minutes or until desired doneness. Cover with foil and keep warm.
While salmon is in the oven, place a frying pan over medium heat. Add olive oil. When sizzling, add diced celery and sauté until wilted. Add pine nuts and sauté until slightly golden.
Remove from heat, place sautéed ingredients in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Toss and let cool to room temperature.
