Baked Salmon

Salmon is my favorite fish to eat! There are so many benefits to eating it. It is packed with vitamins A, B and D as well as calcium. It also has those wonderful omega 3 fatty acids that help your brain work better and improve memory (see this article about the benefits of eating salmon).

I have been on a salmon “kick” for the last several weeks. I don’t know why but maybe my body is craving those omega fatty acids. I have enjoyed it. Below is my quick and simple recipe for baked salmon. I hope you enjoy it!

My salmon at home






Baked Salmon:


~ Purchase a salmon of your choice and size

~ Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees

~ Place salmon on parchment paper or greased baking pan

~ Sprinkle some olive oil on it (use as much as you wish)

~ Sprinkle salt, pepper, Weber Grill Kickin Chicken (I love this stuff), and then some basil.

~ I then place it in the oven for about 30 minutes and voila. Dinner is served!
