Why You'll Love This Healthy Orange Rosemary Salmon Recipe?

Heart Healthy Recipe - Salmon contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are great for the brain and heart health.
High Protein - Delicious way to add more protein to your daily nutritional needs.
Low Carb Recipe - If you serve with a salad or hearty cruciferous veggies, it makes a nice low carb dinner option.

A quick and healthy dinner is ready in only 20 minutes.

🥣 Ingredients For Orange Rosemary Salmon Recipe

Salmon Fillets - You need to get your hands on a few salmon fillets for this healthy dinner recipe! I prefer fresh salmon over frozen, but frozen will work too, if you defrost before making this orange salmon recipe.
Coconut Oil - When our bodies digest coconut oil, the liver produces ketones, which provide energy especially for brain health and may reduce symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.
Spices - Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper are the simple seasonings for the salmon.

Vinaigrette ingredients:

Orange Juice - Fresh is always best, but in a pinch you could use your typical store-bought orange juice.
Lemon Juice - I used the juice to kick up that citrus flavor that balances the spices out.
Apple Cider Vinegar - ACV is amazing to regulate blood sugar levels and helps digestion.
Spices - Garlic powder, dried rosemary, salt and pepper are the only seasoning for the vinaigrette dressing.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil - I typically use a lot of olive oil in my recipes, because the flavor is neutral in taste.
Honey - You can control the level of sweetness with more or less honey. If you prefer maple syrup or stevia, adjust to your likeness.
