So our family goal of getting more fish in our lives is going really well! We have tried a handful of different recipes for salmon alone that are amazing!
This recipe is one of my favorites! (And I got my hubby to eat diced tomatoes…AHHH! Yay!)
And if you’re thinking that tomatoes and salmon won’t be a good combination, let me tell you that it’s actually amazing! Try it yourself, I know you’re gonna love it!
Tomato Basil Salmon

TIPS: If you don’t want as strong of a garlic taste, use 1 tsp. garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. We also loved this salmon with cauliflower rice and edamame, and a lovely side salad! Can you say veggies?!
