ROAST SALMON WITH APPLE SALSA VERDE
This dish is a little taste of summer and full of flavour. The combination of salmon, garlic, fruit and herbs means it’s packed with healthy vitamins and minerals, too, so you can give yourself a pat on the back for being so health-conscious.
If you want to give it a slightly different flavour, you can use avocado oil, which gives it a creamier flavour.
