Hey Food Finders! 

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE broiled salmon.  Believe it or not it is one of the easiest things in the world to make! Salmon is loaded with healthy Omega-3 oils too, making it a staple in my weekly dinner line-up. When it comes out of the broiler it’s crisp on the outside but moist and buttery on the inside. I love to eat the salmon straight from the oven, but there are so many things you can do to jazz it up even more. 

One of my Spring & Summer favorites is to top the broiled salmon with a sweet & tangy mango salsa. It just gives it that extra little something to put it over the top. The mango salsa is loaded with immune building antioxidants as well, making this a power-packed, protein-filled meal! If you are following the Weight Watcher plan, this meal is ZERO points!  You just can’t beat that.

Ingredients for Salmon

Two 4 oz. salmon fillets

1 tsp of each: garlic powder, onion powder, lemon pepper

Oil spray

Recipe for Salmon

Lightly spray a baking dish with oil and place both fillets in the dish, a few inches apart.  Give the tops of the fillets a quick spray to allow the spices to stick. Sprinkle all the spices (more if you’d like), on top of the fillets and broil on low for 12-15 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets until golden brown.

Ingredients for Mango Lime Salsa

1 ripe mango, diced

1 small cucumber, diced

1/2 red pepper, diced

1/4 small red onion, diced

2 tbsp. fresh Cilantro

Recipe for Mango Lime Salsa
