Salmon with Creamy Spinach & Hollandaise Sauce

Salmon is really one amazing food. Not only is it a great source of protein, but it is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, potassium, and selenium. Because of salmon’s ability to boost omega-3s in the blood, research has shown that eating it on a regular basis may help protect against heart disease. It gets better! Salmon has also been shown to help regulate hormones that control appetite, reduce inflammation, and improve brain function. Thank you to our friends over at KetoDietApp for this recipe! 👑
