I must say Day 1 was not bad at all. I had some amazing meals especially tonight's dinner. It was so delicious and it's been kid tested and husband approved. It is a marinated salmon, steamed asparagus with lemon and boiled baby red potatoes. My family loves salmon and this marinade was so delicious and the salmon wasn't dry and who knew that boiled potatoes would taste good? I sure didn't the only way I ever had them growing up was either fried, mashed covered in butter or gravy or baked and loaded. Baby red potatoes have a lower glycemic index that regular white potatoes so they make for a much cleaner choice.
Marinated Salmon, steamed asparagus with lemon and boiled baby reds:
Ingredients
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil
- ¼ tsp. Himalayan salt
- ½ tsp. herbal seasoning blend
- 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 6 oz. wild-caught salmon fillet
Directions
- Combine garlic, oil, basil, salt, seasoning blend, lemon juice, and parsley in a large bowl; mix well.
- Place marinade in a shallow dish; place salmon in marinade, turning several times to coat all sides well. Marinate, covered, in refrigerator for 20 minutes, turning once after 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Place salmon on a piece of aluminum foil. Cover with marinade; seal. (NOTE: Be sure to use all marinade here if there's extra, discard; do not use as serving sauce.)
- Place sealed salmon on baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork.
