Super healthy and super delicious! Salmon is my favourite fish of all. It is high in Omega-3's which makes it fuel for the brain and body.
The pesto is unique in every sense of the word. Most pesto's contain only one herb, but this pesto has a lovely mix of parsley, thyme, rosemary and oregano. I love to make pesto in bulk and freeze them in ice cubes to use it later. Pesto freezes beautifully.
