HEALTHY RECIPES COLLECTIONS

Heart-healthy salmon recipes are the centerpiece of quick suppers and easy entertaining.

No common fish delivers more of the omega-3 fatty acids that help keep arteries clear and hearts strong than salmon. The past decade has shown that these fatty acids may also strengthen the immune system and eyesight, and even improve mental health.

These health benefits have helped inspire Americans to more than triple their consumption of fresh and frozen salmon in the last 15 years, from 50,000 metric tons in 1990 to 180,000 in 2004. The only fish we eat more of are shrimp and canned tuna. Whether grilled, seared, broiled or made into burgers or cakes—you can't go wrong with salmon.
