does anybody have a recipe for salmon they would like to share
I am not a really big fish eater, but I am trying to eat more fish cause of the high protein that it has
I started eating tuna and tilapia and would like to try salmon
thanks

Poached salmon with salsa verde with a side of steamed veggies such as brocollini and carrot = YUM/HEALTHY
Salmon in a basic yellow or red curry sauce is also nice and easy
Smoked salmon is great too - I have it on rye/wholegrain toast with cream cheese and/or avocado
Smoked salmon is also good for salmon omelettes - I use 2 whole eggs and 2 egg white and about 50g smoked salmon, and some red onion, And serve with cracked salt and pepper and a spoonful of cottage cheese on the side
SUCH a protein meal! A good filling breakfast Love my salmon!
P.s I'm sure google will have a billion recipes, like baked or grilled salmon 0 -
Rub with paprika and garlic, panfry in olive oil, eat with lemon juice or aioli and salad or steamed veggies .

I make my own salmon omelet for breakfast. My ingredients are:
- 2 whole eggs beated (you can use 4 egg whites OR 1 whole + 1 egg white if you want)
- 100g wild salmon, chopped
-- 100 g cheese
- about 4 red/green chili peppers (optional for marinating)
- 10g garlic & onions, chopped (for marinate)
- 10g spring onions (half for marinate and half for garnishing)
- 1 tsp salt and pepper, celery powder or any seasonings you like (for marinate)
- 2 tsp lemon juice (optional for marinate)
Marinate salmon and let it stay for 15 mins. Then on the baking pan, put a tsp of olive oil or few sprays of cooking oil spray and then put the fish mixture and bake the fish for 20 mins. On a pan, place the beaten egg on low heat until 90% cooked. Then put the baked salmon on the center part of the cooked egg then put the cheese and the remaining spring onion on top before wrapping the mixture with the egg. Serve with either fried rice, steamed veggies or toasted bread.

I mix low fat cream cheese, with garlic and herbs and spread this on top of the salmon and bake, it is delicious! On other times I just add lemon juice, garlic and herbs. Give it a try!0

Almond-crusted Salmon
Ingredients:
-Salmon fillet (one per person)
-Egg whites
-Almonds
-Lemon/lime juice
-Black pepper
Instructions:
1) Crush your almonds. Usually to a point where half of what you've got is a fine powder, but there's still some chunks there.
2) Pour lemon juice and sprinkle pepper into your bowl of egg whites.
3) Dip and coat your salmon fillets in the egg white; cover the entire thing.
4) Now, sprinkle and caress crushed almonds over the salmon fillet. You want a good deal of it covered for the nutty crunch.
5) Place in the oven at 200 celcius/ 400 Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes
Want a side dish with it, and not want to waste the egg yolks? Slice a sweet potato into wedges and crush it the yolk over it garnish with spices and cook alongside the salmon.

I love salmon with cajun seasoning, just leave it to marinade for half an hour and either steam or fry with some oil spray 0

Thinly sliced raw smoked salmon with some light soy sauce.
Or salmon and avocado sushi rolls with wasabi sauce. Hmmm. That sounds like a good idea for dinner.0 -
I love salmon and I like preparing it in different ways! Here are some of them:
Recepie 1:
Put some olive paste on top of it ( no additional salt ) and bake it untill the meat looks a bit white.
Recepie 2:
Instead of the olive paste put dijon mustard and bake it again.
Recepie 3:
Just put some salt, peper and lemon juice and bake it.
And one of my favourites, but takes time...
Recepie 4:
for 1lbs salmon use 1/5 tablespoon sugar and 1 of salt. Mix them together and after that cover the salmon on both sides. Put it in the frige and for 4 days turn it around once per day. After 4 days it's ready and can be eaten like sashimi, just the fish, or on integral toast.
*One tip, when I bake it I always put aluminium foil under - it's so much easier to clean afterwards!
Hope this helps. Good luck with getting used to fish eating, for sure is very healthy ( especially salmon which has tons of benefits! )
Cheers!0 -

^ This is good. You can also use already flavoured cream cheese to make it even quicker. Baked salmon is the best! I like to put lemonpepper on top for some extra crunch.
Spreading pesto on top is also very very very good.0 -

Bake salmon as you normally would but during the last five minutes of baking cover with a thin layer of sugar free orange marmalade mixed with ground red pepper. Just bake enough to caramelize. Sweet and hot.0

Marinated salmon
Mix juice of 1 orange, 1 tbsp low sodium tamari and 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil. Rub into salmon steak/fillet for a few hours or overnight. Grill or griddle salmon.

Just pan fry in olive and canola oil. Season with lemon pepper & cajun seasoning. I like Slap Your Mama seasoning. You can just cook it alone, however I like to add fresh spinich and saute and add manderine oranges at the end just enough to heat them up. Delicious and simple.0

Top a filet with dill or cilantro. Spritz with EVOO or margine spray. Broil. Easy-peasy!
Or , go to Whole Foods & try some of their seasoned-to-cook fish. If you've never been a fish eater, you can experiment with what they already have prepared to see what you like. For instance, I learned that I do not like halibut, no matter how they dress it up!0 -

I love salmon and eat it about 2 or 3 times a week. I love to take canned salmon and eat it in the same way I eat tuna. If I have a salmon steak I just cook it on the outside grill. I add nothing as I love the flavor of salmon and would not want to destroy it with lemon, garlic or whatever people find to add to it. Be careful not to over cook.
Canned salmon, diced green peppers, diced onion, low fat crackers, and egg whites all mixed together makes a great salmon loaf baked in the oven.0 -

Take any size/amount of salmon.
Drizzle a little EVOO
Rub it with minced garlic that is mixed with italian seasoning (to taste, how much or little you prefer)
Thinly slice tomatoes and onions into rings, and lay tomatoes on salmon with onions on top.
put some seasoned panko crumbs on top and bake at 400 until done through. (should only be 6-12 min. depending on thinckness)0 -
Take fresh slices of lemons and place a layer on some aluminum foil. Place the salmon on top seasoned with salt, pepper and dill. Cover salmon with another layer of lemon slices. Wrap it up in the foil and bake at 350.
The only way I had tasted salmon up to this point was smoked and I hated it. After having fresh salmon made like this I loved it. Now I don't even need to make it like this to enjoy it.0 -
This one is FANTASTIC - Salmon w/ Lentils. You could cut down on the EVOO if you're watching calories even further. Very healthy/balanced meal.

I rub that deliciousness with lemon and pepper and throw it in a broil for 5 minutes.

Spray skillet w/-nonfat cooking spray
Salt, pepper, garlic powder & a pinch or two of sugar(it weakens the fishy taste) on the salmon.
cook a couple minutes on each side depending on how done you like it.
Simple.....0 -
I normally just cook a Salmon Fillet in the oven with sliced onions all on top of it and fresh garlic cloves (chopped). I also top it with pepper, garlic powder (I really like garlic), basil, and whatever other spices I feel like at the time.
When It's finished cooking, I pour a little lemon juice on top.0 -
This is my absolute favourite salmon recipe:
Sautee broccoli, red or green pepper, carrots, onions in skillet
When veggies are partially cooked add non-fat greek yogurt, dijon mustard, tarragon or dill, stir to combine
Lay salmon on top of veggies, cover, simmer on low heat until salmon cooked through.0 -
BUMP I love salmon !0

I love fish, but I know for some people it can be too 'fishy". My boyfriend introduced me to red snapper. It's delicious. Just some salt, pepper and lemon juice. Bake for a few minutes and done. Love it.
