This healthy, gluten-free dinner was so delicious, colorful and easy to make! On my latest trip to Costco, I purchased a huge piece of Salmon which I cut into four 2-fillet size servings each (I know, this thing was huge!) and then put into the freezer-so expect more Salmon recipes soon.

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets mine were about 6oz each
  • 5 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 Tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Tbs butter
  • 1/2 of a lemon
  • 3 bell peppers cut into stripes (I had one yellow, orange and red, but green would be great too)
  • 1 cup uncooked brown rice
  • For seasoning the salmon & bell peppers: garlic salt salt and pepper
  • For the peppers -sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Prepare the brown rice according to directions (the organic one I used takes 50 min, so I start on that first).
  • In a pan heat 1.5 Tbs of the EVOO and add to it 3 of the crushed garlic cloves. Add the salmon fillets, season each side with garlic salt, salt and pepper and cook each side for about 6-8 minutes. When you are almost done cooking the salmon, add 1 Tbs butter and squeeze juice of half a lemon and then turn off the heat and let butter melt.
  • In another pan, add remaining EVOO and 2 crushed garlic cloves, add pepper strips, season them, I added a sprinkling of crushed red pepper flakes to the bell peppers.
  • To assemble divide rice and peppers among 4 bowls, then add the salmon and a dribbles of the butter lemon sauce to each bowl and enjoy!

Truth time: I’ve never really *loved* salads. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
UNTIL... I created THIS salad!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I could eat this salad every single day!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It also packs really well for lunches, I just put the salad in one container and toppings in another!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Plus, there’s candied pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and goat cheese and all sorts of awesome toppings and homemade salad dressing 🙌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, I gave it a not so great name so no one was finding it...so I’m re-sharing with an updated timeless name; salad with candied nuts and seeds

Want to hear the horrible thing that happened in m Want to hear the horrible thing that happened in my house this week? 🎻 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
First, I ran out of coffee beans 😳😩😢
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then, as I was washing dishes late at night, my French press slipped through my hands and shattered 🙀😭😫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I just kept repeating a German phrase my mom used to say “sherben bringen Glück” which means “shards bring luck” (it’s usually applied to like porcelain- which is why plates and mugs are thrown on the ground ahead of weddings... but my mom would apply it to glass/plates/whatever broke) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So...I’m going to go ahead and make some sweet cream, bust out my old coffee machine until the new French press arrives <-because apparently now I’m someone who makes French press coffee every morning! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m going to drink my coffee and make my meal plan and shopping list for the week ahead (if you need some inspo the latest free meal plan and which has the ability to create a shooting list with the click of a button is live on the blog!
