Ingredients:
2 – 4 fresh caught salmon fillets
Unrefined organic coconut oil
Pepper
Dried rosemary leaves
Freshly squeezed lemon juice
Heat a small amount of coconut oil in pan. Generously pepper fresh, dry salmon fillets and sprinkle with dried rosemary leaves. When oil is hot, place salmon in the pan, skin side down. Sear the fillets 4-5 minutes and flip until heated through (flesh will turn light pink). Transfer to a plate. Squeeze lemon juice over fillets and serve with coleslaw and stir-fry veggies.
Simple Cole Slaw:
½ head raw cabbage, shredded
1-cup chopped organic cauliflower florets
½ cup diced red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped fennel
1/2 cup broccoli florets
¼ – ½ cup ranch dressing
Pepper to taste




Stir-Fry Veggies
1-large zucchini, sliced in half lengthwise, then cut on the diagonal into ½” strips
1-cup broccoli florets
½ cup carrot slices
½ cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup yellow bell pepper
¼ cup dried cherries
1 tbsp chia seeds
Pinch of dried red chili flakes (optional)
Pepper to taste
Organic cold pressed garlic-infused extra virgin olive oil




Heat oil on medium high in pan or wok. Add broccoli, carrots, and yellow bell pepper and sprinkle lightly with pepper. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes. Add zucchini, mushrooms, chia seeds, and dried red chili flakes. Heat/stir another 2-3 minutes, then add dried cherries. Continue to cook another minute or two and serve.
Tips:
Salmon fillets are also great on the grill. Cooking times may vary depending on the heat setting. Try this: Season the fillets, place lemon slices on top, and wrap tightly in foil. Heat on the grill for 10-12 minutes and enjoy a moist, tender meal.
Coleslaw: I make a big batch of this every week and store the veggies separately in an air-tight container in the fridge. When I need a snack or side dish, I fill a small bowl with veggies, add pepper and a little dressing and I’m good to go!
Garlic-infused olive oil: Put 10-12 whole garlic cloves in a glass cruet and fill with organic cold pressed extra virgin olive oil. The oil will “infuse” over a day or two. Keep cruets in your pantry or on the kitchen counter for everyday use. Use new garlic cloves for each batch.
