Quick Salmon Recipe

Hello Foodies,

I love Salmon! Salmon’s health benefits are far too many to ignore. It is power packed with disease fighting acids like Omega-3 fatty acids, minerals and vitamins. It even packs a punch with Selenium, which gives your skin a healthy glow and aides in healthy hair growth. So whether you bake it, broil it, grill it or eat it raw salmon is a powerful addition to your healthy lifestyle.

Here is a quick recipe I made for lunch today....

Ginger Soy Seared Salmon

Ingredients:

Fresh Salmon Filet
Dash of Salt
Dash of Pepper
Dash of Ginger
Dash of Garlic Powder
2 tsp Soy Sauce
2 tsp Sesame Oil
2 green onions, finely sliced
1/2 C Fresh Spinach Leaves
1/2 C Arugula
1 tsp Sesame Seeds

Dressing:

1 Tbsp Plain Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Sesame Oil
Dash of Soy Sauce
1 tsp Miso Paste (you can opt this out)
