This is a clean, vibrant superfood haven that is much more than healthy. Plus, it is so yummy! The organic wild Salmon is an excellent source of omega 6 and 3 rich fatty acids, which are heart-healthy fats. Combined with this delicious broccoli pesto and sauteed kale and asparagus you have a dish fit for a king in no time. This is a restaurant-style recipe and couldn’t be easier to make it in your own home.
