Hoisin Glazed Salmon
Salmon, which is loaded with heart healthy omega – 3 fatty acids, is especially delicious when glazed with hoisin sauce, lime, soya sauce and sugar… and cooked until lightly brown. It’s also one of the few foods that is naturally rich in vitamin D, which plays a key role in maintaining strong bones.
