Salmon
Ingredients:
2 medium/large Salmon fillets
1 tsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp dairy free butter (we used Earth Balance soy free)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp thyme
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp parsley (dried or fresh)
1 tsp honey (optional, totally delicious without it still)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400
Place salmon on top of some foil thats big enough to full wrap around and cover them
Coat the salmon in all the other ingredients
Cover the salmon up tightly, add another layer of foil to wrap around (you really want it to steam)
Bake for 13 minutes or until cooked (cook the other side dishes while you do this)
Rice
Ingredients:
2 cups Instant white rice
1 tsp parsley (fresh or dried)
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp lemon juice
lemon wedge
1 Tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
Instructions:
Boil 2 cups water
Put all ingredients in and stir
Turn off heat and cover with a lid (cook other side dish while you wait)
Green Beans
Ingredients:
1 large bag of green beans
1 Tbsp all seasoning
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp garlic & herb seasoning
1 tsp onion powder
Instructions:
Heat up oil in a large pan on high heat
Put in green beans
Add all the seasonings
Stir them around, keep doing that every 3 minutes until you're satisfied with the amount of browned green beans
Lower heat, add in around 4 tbsp of water and cover till they are tender or until they reach your desired doneness
Now put all of your dishes on your plate... we like the salmon on top of the rice and you can use some of that butter sauce in the foil packet to drizzle over the salmon and rice
Add some more fresh squeezed lemon on to that salmon (or serve a lemon wedge on the side for guests)
Story behind the recipe:
Salmon is delicious and it's so healthy! These two side dishes to go with it are the perfect way to complete a healthy plate that is sure to satisfy your tummy and your taste buds. Pretty easy and quick dinner that you can throw together for the family or yourself and have left overs!
Ever been to Tea Bar? They have a salmon bowl and their salmon is so perfect in taste and texture it just keeps you craving salmon even after you have it. That's what happened to Allergy Girl here. More salmon please! Now don't get your hopes up, this isn't a copy cat of their salmon, but it (seriously who knows what voodoo stuff they do to that perfection of a fish) but it is something to satisfy your salmon craving in a different way.
