SALMON so good for you

Salmon is an oily fish and rich in Omega 3 fatty acids. That means it’s good for your brain, heart and eyes. Quite a fish! Because of its high oil content, salmon is rich and filling, a little goes a long way.

Combine 400gm can of chickpeas (rinsed and drained) with:

2 sticks of celery

2 teaspoons of lemon zest

1/4 cup of parsley

1 tablespoon of capers

2 teaspoons of lemon juice

1 teaspoon of olive oil.

Season with pepper.

Lightly spray a non stick pan or barbeque flat plate with oil and heat on high. Grill the salmon for 2 – 3 minutes each side for medium or until cooked to your liking.

Serve the salmon with the chickpea salad and a wedge of lemon.

 

You could replace the chickpeas with 400gms of brown lentils.
