Salmon Fillet With Orange Relish
The beauty of this dish is that it doesn't require too much prep, you can increase the amounts to feed a crowd if you wish, or it is perfect for just one or two people. Add rice, or not.
Light, healthy and tasty, salmon is such a great choice of protein in your diet and is one of the most nutritious foods on the planet. It has an impressive list of health benefits starting with Omega 3's. Salmon is rich in long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure and decrease risk factors for disease. (Loving that aren't you?)
Salmon is an excellent source of several B vitamins, which are needed for energy production, controlling inflammation and protecting heart and brain health. It is also a great way to eat more potassium which helps control your blood pressure.
The list goes on. Consuming at least two servings per week can help you meet your nutrient needs and reduce the risk of several common diseases.
