Roasted Buttered Salmon

This recipe is easy, delicious and very good for your body! Wild-caught salmon is one of the most nutritious foods on the planet!

Benefits of Salmon:

• High in Protein: a 4 oz filet is approximately 23 grams of protein
• Omega 3 fatty acids: a VERY IMPORTANT part of a healthy YOU. (Inflammation fighter, heart health, cancer prevention, brain health)

When buying salmon, look for Alaskan WILD CAUGHT. While farm raised salmon is fattier than wild caught, most of the time it can be full of poor quality omega 6 fatty acids instead of powerful anti-inflammatory omega 3’s.
