Parmesan Crusted Salmon and Roasted Broccoli


I'm almost done catching up with my vacation posts, I think i took so much pictures!
But.. you can never have too much pictures right? at least for me.

Anyway, we are doing good on getting back to healthy eating. 
I'm so happy about that.
More cooking and less eating fast food and eating out.
I like switching up our food so for this week I made salmon, This might not be too
healthy but this was so good.

  • Season bottom of salmon with salt and pepper and place salmon in center of baking sheet, leaving about 3/4 inches between fillets so they can evenly cook.
