Mindful choices for healthy and low sodium cooking

Wild catch coho salmon

1 Comment

It is that lovely time of year when Coho salmon is fresh-caught and available in the local market, along with fresh local greens. Refrigerated, but not frozen, the salmon bakes up in just twenty minutes for a medium rare salmon steak. This is my second week enjoying it with a light salad and smashed yellow potatoes. Seasonal and delicious, both wins.

    I love salmon and have written about it several times on my blog. I’ll have to ad this recipe to my low-salt recipe page, thanks.
