This is a favorite of my grandmothers. I got the recipe for the sauce/marinade from one of my best friends in Canada. She made it for me this past January while I was there. I fell in LOVE!
The meal comes in under 600 calories and you can do a few variations for the sides to change those values.
- Alaskan Salmon (Mine is Schwan's)--Aldi sells packages of wild caught and it averages $1 per pc.
- Maple syrup
- Soy sauce
- Minced garlic or fresh garlic you can mince-Aldi sells a glass jar of minced garlic cheap!
- Fresh or frozen broccoli
- small potatoes (my two are the size of one large!)
- condiments/sides as preferred.
Take 20-30 minutes to marinate salmon in an equal mix of soy sauce and maple syrup, make sure they are covered nicely and soak it in. It does not take much of either to do this. You can also use light syrup to cut calories.
Preheat oven to 375- once salmon is nicely soaked place in aluminum covered baking dish. Spoon a tsp of minced garlic across each piece of salmon. Bake for 20 minutes or until flaky with a fork.
Steam your broccoli as normal
Baked potato can do 5 min in the microwave and then wrapped in foil or bake in oven. Your choice.
Once done serve on plate. I chose to use 1 tbsp of butter spread split between each potato in this photo, minimal salt on potato and broccoli, and some Parmesan cheese on the broccoli. The potatoes also tasted amazing dipped in the excess sauce.
This is high in protein and a great balance if you are on the Herbalife program and needing one large colorful meal a day!
