Salmon and Vegetable Cheese Sauce

Salmon is always a good choice to cook with something.  I took some garlic, red bell peppers, spinach, baby portabello and goat cheese, and turned it into a cheese sauce.  Then I topped with some parsley.  This is another dish that is healthy but has a little yummy goodness to it.  ENJOY!

Salmon Nutrition

Salmon is a highly nutritious food.  Of course, it is high in protein, and the “good fats.”  But did you know that a 4 oz serving of wild salmon provides a full day’s requirement of vitamin D?  It is one of the few foods that can make that claim.  That same piece of fish contains over half of the necessary B12, niacin, and selenium, and is an excellent source of B6 and magnesium.  Canned salmon also contains large amounts of calcium (due to the bones of the fish).
