10 more salmon recipes to add to your files

In another sheet of aluminum foil, place your four pieces of salmon and separate with aluminum foil. Then rub in marinades for each. — *Soon it will be time for grilling salmon outside again in my Midwest home. Can;t wait. In the meantime, check out these baked salmon recipes.*

I’ve written in the past that you can never have too many salmon recipes. So here are 10 more from MyRecipes.com. All are baked, which is healthy, ut check recipes to see if you need to eliminate any salt, fat or sugar that ingredients may bring.

Salmon with Green Beans and Smashed Potatoes, the first recipe listed, looks simple to make and tasty, I’d leave out the salt and go with a fat-free mayo. If you’re worried about sugar intake, substitute red potatoes too. This recipe shows its nutrition info, which is always helpful.

Not all the recipes have nutritional information however. Crispy Sheet Pan Salmon with Lemony Asparagus and Carrots sounds tasty too but has no nutrition info, sadly. I may try it anyway.It also includes mayo, get that fat-free. And again, leave out the salt, you don’t need it for fish.

Salmon is always tasty, I wouldn’t worry about losing weight with it

Salmon is still on the healthy fat list, so you can eat it as much as you like, unlike those fatty beef steaks you once ate. I’ve written before you can never have enough salmon recipes and often get mine from EatingWell.com.

Your salmon feast awaits. — *I love making salmon in a variety of ways.*

But this latest piece from EatingWell, 17 Salmon Dinners That Can Help You Lose Weight, made me chuckle. If you cut the salt, fat and sugar from your diet, i.e. stop eating everything you like to binge eat, you’ll lose weight naturally, so there’s no need for special diets.

Plus, the intro of this piece talks about sauces and creamy pastas — how much salt, fat and sugar are in those?

Still, all that said, take a look, you might find some fun recipes. And you can likely modify those that have too much salt, fat or sugar, by taking offending ingredients out. You have to click through to the actual recipe and then its nutrition information to get the information you need.

You can never have too many salmon recipes, so here’s 26 more

Trying to stay on a heart-healthy diet means giving up almost all of the foods I once enjoyed.

Salmon, thankfully, is not one of those, however. Current nutritional thinking is that salmon has “healthy” fats and so is fine to eat for everyone, regardless of health concerns. In our house, salmon really has come to replace beef several nights a week.

So I have a lot of salmon recipes on my recipe page. But you can never have enough.

So I was happy to read this piece on EatingWell.com 26 High-Protein Salmon Dinners for Weeknights. Some of these don’t appeal to me because they’re highly spiced, but others, like one-skillet salmon with fennel and sun-dried tomato couscous, sound intriguing.

A nice feature about these recipes is they include nutritional information so you can see if they’re truly healthy, i.e. low in salt, fat and sugar, or just claiming to be. Remember, never assume a recipe is healthy just because whoever posts it says so.
