Thai Salmon Coconut Curry
This bright and nutritious thai inspired dish is just as healthy as it is delicious! The rich flavors balanced with salty, fat, acid and heat create the perfect combination. The best part is you can customize it, use any veggies you have in the fridge or sub frozen. I used wild salmon, but you could also swap the protein source for chicken, steak, tofu or garbanzo beans. Make it the way you like! This recipe has a balance of carbohydrate, protein, fat and fiber that will keep you energized and feeling satisfied for hours
