Wild salmon contains an antioxidant called astaxanthin, which is what makes the wild salmon meat a beautiful dark pink to red color. It’s because of its natural diet!
Although wild-caught salmon typically costs a bit more than farmed salmon, it’s definitely worth its weight!
Wild-caught salmon has more vitamins, minerals, and anti-inflammatory benefits.
I try to purchase salmon when I see wild-caught salmon is on SALE. If it’s a really great sale, then maybe I’ll stock the freezer too.
This recipe is EXCELLENT for meal prep as well!
Simply add 1/2 cup of brown rice, or quinoa, your roasted carrots, lemon wedges, and a salmon filet, to each food prep container.
Stays well in a sealed container in your fridge for up to 3 days.
Serve over brown rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice.
Some Carrot facts if you care:
These party platter favorites are one of the most nutritious veggies out there as they are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
🧡They may help fight cancer, lower your blood pressure, keep your immune system strong, help your bones stay healthy, AND help protect your vision.
✅Fun Fact: If you eat more than 10 medium-sized carrots a day for a few weeks, you’ll build up too much beta-carotene in your body and develop a condition called carotenemia … and your skin will start to turn orange!
Carrots are great in soups, salads, stews, stir-fries, and casseroles. You can eat them raw, steamed, roasted, baked, and even juiced.
How often do you eat carrots? (Hopefully you’re not eating 10 of them every day!)
