[#ad] Here’s another delicious recipe made with dressings from my friends at Fat & Happy Foods. Their balsamic vinaigrette makes everything so good – including this salmon that gets marinated in it for a short time and then topped with a fresh strawberry salsa.
It’s a quick meal to satisfy both your savory and sweet tooth. The great thing about this dressing is that it’s super low in carbs and it’s made with MCT oil instead of nasty industrial seed oils.
