Salmon

by Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom on September 29, 2008

Thanks to 2 great sales on salmon and broccoli this week, we get to have a salmon dinner for $5!!! This was a delicious and nutritious meal! And there’s even some leftovers to throw on my salad for lunch tomorrow! My boys both ate their portions of the salmon and the broccoli! Fish is an excellent source of Omega 3 fatty acids. Be sure to get those Omega 3s into your weekly diet!

Scrumptilicious!

 

Ingredients
3/4 lb Salmon Fillet ($3.75)
2 Broccoli Heads ($.44)
1 cup rice ($.30)
1 T lemon juice ($.05)
Spices – Seafood blend (dill, garlic)

Directions
1. Place salmon onto large piece of foil. Drizzle lemon juice on top and sprinkle spices over the top. Fold foil around the fillet(s). Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Be sure to check that is has cooked through, as cooking time will vary depending on thickness of the fillet!
2. Steam broccoli.
3. Cook 1 cup rice in 2 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil. Add rice, stir through, reduce heat and simmer (covered) for 20 minutes.

Cost $4.59
