This meal recipe is the perfect example of a healthy & balanced meal, like you will find in my online course “How to Quit Sugar” and in my upcoming cookbook.
The combination of proteins, vegetables & moderate carbs, is perfect to keep you full for longer and balance those sugar blood levels.
Ingredients
- 1 salmon fillet
- 60 gr of cooked quinoa
- 1 packet of baby spinach
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- 2 garlic cloves
- a dash of chili flakes
- a sprinkle of oregano
- a sprinkle of EVOO
- 1/2 a lemon
Method
- Wash and cat the cherry tomatoes in half, and place them in a non-stick pan with the olive oil a sprinkle of chili flake and a dash oregano.
- Let it warm in the pan at low heat for 3-4 minutes. Take the cherry tomatoes away, add a little more olive oil and chili flakes, add the baby spinach and let them cook at medium heat 3-4 minutes.
- In the meantime cook the salmon in another non-stick pan ( we strongly suggest ceramic coated non-stick pan rather than teflon) simply with a sprinkle of olive oil and a couple of lemon slices.
- When ready place in a serving plate with part of the spinach, and the quinoa mixed with the cherry tomatoes and the remaining spinach.
This looks great! It’s so hard to get my kids eating salmon, a healthy dish like this which makes it yummy will really help!
