Salmon is one of the healthiest proteins you can have at a meal. Not only is it chock full of vitamins and minerals, but consistent consumption has been proven to help with weight control, inflammation, and more. We’ve paired this with a simple salad and homemade vinaigrette for a lunch or dinner recipe you can feel good about.
