Baked Salmon With Lime and Parsley

Recipes, Weight Loss Help

healthy_eatingHere at Lose Baby Weight we are a bit in love with baked salmon at the moment.
This recipe uses fresh limes and parsley to cut through the flavours of the fish to really take it up a notch.
A healthy eating plan should incorporate 2-3 serves of fish each week. Salmon is a great choice as it contains heart loving omega-3’s.
It is a great source of protein and is lower in calories compared to other animal foods.
This dish also contains a stack of healthy veggies, which help to bulk out the meal, adding nutrition and fibre.
Tweak this recipe to your heart’s content. You could try using yellow squash, zucchini, snow peas, thinly sliced red onion, low fat feta or some fresh coriander.

Ingredients:
  • 4 salmon fillets, around 100g each
  • 2 cups of green beans, trimmed and lightly steamed
  • 1 cup of broccoli florets, trimmed and lightly steamed

  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 limes, quartered

  • 200g punnet of cherry tomatoes
  • Small bunch of fresh parsley or dill
Method:
  • Heat your oven to 200C and get the roasting pan hot.
  • Place the steamed veggies onto the pan and season to taste.
  • Squeeze over the juice of one of the limes, throwing the limes into the pan afterwards.
  • Drizzle with the olive oil before adding the tomatoes on top.
  • Place the salmon into the pan on top of the veggies and squeeze over the second lime, again adding the lime to the pan afterwards.
