4 Superfood Recipes Featuring Salmon and Broccoli ~ Successful Homemakers

I’d like to share four of my favorite recipes with you. They are all easy to make, but are tasty as well as healthy!

Herb Crusted Salmon ~ Successful Homemakers
Maple Lemon Salmon ~ Successful Homemakers

These salmon recipes are show-stoppers but are so very easy to make.

The side dishes of Broccoli Jasmine Rice and Broccoli Slaw are perfect compliments to the Herb Crusted Salmon and Maple Lemon Salmon.

You can wow your guests with these superfoods! Mix and match the main dish with the broccoli side dishes for a complete meal in no time.

To save money and time, I always shop at Sam’s Club for salmon and broccoli. The large pieces of salmon are perfect for our family.

You can make both of the salmon dishes that I share below with ONE large package of salmon.

Buying the chopped broccoli from the fresh produce section is a time-saver on busy nights. (It’s also great to have on hand for a simple steamed broccoli side dish- top with a bit of butter, salt, and pepper, and YUM!)

              I’m hungry again! It’s hard to choose a favorite, but I’m leaning towards the Maple Lemon Salmon with Broccoli Jasmine Rice.

              Let me know when you make them and which was your favorite!
