Pea Pesto Salmon

Pea Pesto Salmon

Lately, I’ve been prioritizing clean, nutrient-dense foods, and let me tell you—what you eat truly makes a difference. I’ve felt more energized, vibrant, and ready to take on my day just by fueling my body with real, organic ingredients sourced from local farmers’ markets and vendors.

So, let’s make this together! I picked up these fresh ingredients from my local market, and the salmon straight from a nearby dock. If you don’t have access to a local fisherman, no worries—wild-caught organic salmon from your grocery store works just as well.
