Salmon- What are Nutritional Benefits?
Salmon is not only good for your taste buds but your health too!
Native to the North Atlantic, Salmon is a popular food dish in many parts of the world and often intermixed with American cuisine.
Rich in protein, potassium, vitamin B-6, B-12, and omega 3 fatty acids, salmon has slightly high cholesterol. This is why too much daily consumption is not recommended to convert a healthy dish into a platter of diseases.

Which Side Combos Go with Simple Salmon?
Even if you are on a diet and grilled or Poached Salmon is a boring yet the only leisure food on your menu right now, you can pair it with many interesting combinations to liven up the taste and your life.
Honey mustard dip, garlic sauce, sautéed or pan-fried vegetables, Brown Rice Crackers are a few of the many delicious options that can take your simple salmon recipe to the next level.
How to Store?
People like me who are either on a tight schedule or lazy on other days and do not feel like cooking a meal, pre-cooked food in the refrigerator are our savior.
Although almost any food can be frozen or refrigerated for days and even months, salmon is not one of them. You can store raw salmon all you want in the freezer for a couple of months. But cooked salmon? That is a big no.
Because it will not only kill the decadent taste of it but its health benefits too.
