salmon

How amazing does this Salmon look?  My wonderful Isagenix Team runs fun little FB challenge groups every so often and someone in the group shared this recipe this week!  I can’t wait to try it, fits all my criteria of easy and healthy 😉

Plus, it seems like the perfect summertime dinner.  Serve with a veggie side of choice, maybe some a sweet potato or on top of some caulirice since you’re already got something green right on top of your salmon!  Grab these ingredients at the store & add this to your dinner menu asap!  Enjoy!
