What's in these Crispy Salmon Skin Broccoli?
As I mentioned earlier, I used crispy salmon skin that I got from Good Fish! These are literally crispy salmon skins, source from sustainably caught sockeye salmon. They are low carb and each bag has 10 grams of protein.
The seasonings included in this recipe are real salt, black pepper, garlic powder and dried parsley. That really brings up the taste from the broccoli, that combined with the cheese and the salmon skin is just WONDERFUL.
Veggies are actually very fun to prepare! As a nutritionist I know that healthy eating should be sustainable and convenient without sacrificing any taste. This recipe is a great and encouraging recipe to try veggies in different ways, not only plain old and boring green salads!
