Almond Sun Fillet


This is a recipe adapted from Melissa Ramos. Fish is good in moderation in times of extreme
fatigue and hunger. Fish is great for women. It may balance out hormones due to the content of good DHA oils and natural calming occurring B vitamins. Remember eat sparingly and keep most of your diet fresh organic produce:)

 1 tbsp org mustard powder
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tbsp org coconut flour
1 tbsp org almond flour
3 tbsp coarsely chopped unsalted org sunflower seeds
2 tbsps fresh org parsley
 Zest from one lemon
 Salt & Cracked Pepper
top with slivered almonds

  Preheat oven to 450. Begin by adding avocado oil on salmon and then sprinkle with mustard powder on top. Mix the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl and top over the salmon gently padding it down. Bake in the oven for 15-20mins
* Remember ... One protein serving is the size of the palm of your hand!
