Notes

Make it a one-pan meal by sautéing veggies in the same pan after salmon. Adjust sweetness with honey to fit your taste. Add a squeeze of lime for a zesty twist. Try quinoa or brown rice for extra health benefits. Keep salmon skin on for flavor, remove before serving. For variations, add bell peppers or swap salmon for tofu.
