Dietitians suggest two servings of fish a week. Salmon is one of the highest in those omega-3 fatty acids that help to prevent heart disease. âMy husband had high cholesterol so I created this heart-healthy recipe. Now I serve it to guests all the timeâ¦even fish-haters rave and ask for the recipe!â Susan Robenson - Hot Springs, Arkansas Ingredients:
2 packages (6 ounces each) fresh baby spinach |
1 salmon fillet (1-1/2 pounds) |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
3 tablespoons honey |
3 tablespoons dijon mustard |
1/4 cup cornflakes |
2 tablespoons sliced almonds |
2 tablespoons chopped pecans |
1/4 cup fat-free mayonnaise |

Directions:
1. Place spinach in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray; top with salmon. Drizzle oil over spinach.
