Salmon is one of the most nutritionally dense foods out there, packed with protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Eating a 3oz serving of salmon can provide your body with essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, potassium, iron and zinc. Plus, it's low in calories and saturated fat, making it the perfect choice for a healthy meal!
One of the best things about salmon is that it takes only minutes to prepare. You can bake it in the oven, grill it on the BBQ, or broil it. Or try cooking it in the microwave or on the stovetop for an even easier meal. No matter how you choose to cook your salmon, it's sure to be delicious!
When purchasing salmon from sustainable fisheries certified by programs like the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch® program or Marine Stewardship Council label, you can rest assured that your choice of seafood is contributing towards healthy fish stocks and helping preserve ocean ecosystems.
