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!
