Healthy eating hints

Here are a few handy, healthy eating hints that you can share with your customers.

1. Bake, broil or grill your Atlantic Salmon instead of pan-frying it.
2. Limit the amount of oil you use.
3. Flavour your Atlantic Salmon with seasonings like dill, lemon, or pepper instead of butter or oil.
4. If you do use oil, make it olive oil. Research suggests that this monounsaturated fat can have a positive impact on your cholesterol level.
5. Pair your Atlantic Salmon with a healthy side dish like steamed broccoli or carrots. Not only will these colourful veggies look good, they're good for you too.
