Healthy, delicious, and ready in 10 minutes? Look no further. This recipe is easy and awesome. The salmon and avocado pack this meal with TONS of brain healthy Omega-3 fatty acids. When I make this, I'll usually serve it with brown rice and mixed steamed organic veggies. When you're shopping for your salmon, try and buy fresh if you can. But MOST definitely, buy WILD salmon, NEVER farmed.
Why?
Wild fish get their omega-3’s from aquatic plants. Farmed fish on the other hand, are usually fed corn or soy, which contain little or no omega-3’s. This unnatural diet also means some farmed fish can actually accumulate unhealthy levels of the WRONG fatty acids. Farmed fish are also routinely dosed with antibiotics, which can cause antibiotic-resistant diseases in humans when consumed. Like thats not enough to deter you, fish also carry unhealthy levels of toxins from living in pools with their own feces. Gross, right? So go to the store, buy your WILD caught salmon, and try this one tonight - you will NOT be disappointed!
