Salmon - The Best Source of Omega-3 Fat


Cold Water wild caught salmon is one of nature's richest treats! We strongly suggest avoiding any farm raised fish. Fresh caught Pacific salmon is one of the healthiest choices you can make. Health and nutrition experts recommend eating fish two or three times a week. The Omega-3 fats in salmon are great for your heart and your brain!

Try this simple and nutritious baked salmon and you can taste for yourself the rich flavor salmon has to offer!

Here is all you'll need:

1 pound salmon fresh or frozen

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoons onion powder

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1/8 teaspoon dried oregano

1/8 teaspoon dried thyme

1 Tablespoon lemon juice

2 1/2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

If using frozen fish, thaw in refrigerator according to package directions.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Separate (or cut) fish into 4 pieces. Place fish in a 9x13x2 inch baking pan.

Combine paprika, garlic and onion powder, pepper, oregano, and thyme in a small bowl.

Sprinkle herb mixture (step 4 mixture) and lemon juice evenly over the fish. Then drizzle olive oil on top.

Bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Or try these easy to make salmon patties for a healthy meal anytime!
