Cashew Curry Salmon
I’ve definitely been craving comfort food lately. This recipe is creamy and flavorful, while also being full of healthy fats & protein to nourish your body and keep you satisfied.
It’s also super easy, so a great mid-week dinner. Just bake the salmon, blend the sauce, and you’re done! Serve it with a side of my coconut rice or regular cooked rice.
