Where to buy Salmon?
As most of you know, I spent a week in Alaska this summer fishing for Salmon and Halibut! We shipped home about a hundred pounds of fish and I have been loving it!
I think fresh Salmon is the best salmon. Obviously not everyone can travel to Alaska, catch their own fish and ship it home. You can also buy salmon at your local grocery store. I prefer the Salmon fillets at Costco in the fresh section.
I love creating new fish recipes and this recipe is one of my favorites! The sauce is simple and easy to throw together and the salmon tastes amazing! We are loving this Honey Dijon Baked Salmon recipe! We served it with a side of asparagus and over a bed of brown rice!
Salmon is such a light and healthy protein. It’s awesome for counting calories and macros! I have many more salmon recipes coming to the blog soon and I can’t wait to share them with you!
