About Salmon with pesto
Salmon with pesto is a flavorful dish that pairs tender, flaky salmon with the vibrant taste of pesto sauce made from basil, pine nuts, garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. Originating in Italian cuisine, this dish combines heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon with the nutrient-rich ingredients of pesto, including antioxidants from basil and healthy fats from olive oil. Salmon is an excellent source of protein and essential vitamins like B12 and D, while the pesto brings layers of flavor without the need for heavy or processed sauces. However, be mindful of portion sizes since pesto can be calorie-dense due to its oil and cheese content. Served with a side of roasted vegetables or whole grains, Salmon with Pesto is a balanced, nutritious option that supports heart and brain health while delivering satisfying flavors.
