Simple, Nourishing, and Perfectly Flaky
This over-roasted salmon is one of my go-to favorites in my food addiction recovery – simple, balanced, and deeply satisfying. With just a drizzle of healthy fat and a sprinkle of seasoning, it bakes into tender, flaky perfection every time.
It’s sugar-free, flour-free, and full of nourishing protein to keep your recovery on track and your body feeling steady.
Roast a pan of vegetables at the same time, and serve over potatoes or brown rice for a simple and abstinent meal!
