Its quick, easy and the main ingredient is consistently in stock in my freezer.
But one thing that I struggle to incorporate into my meals when I travel iseating enough vegetables.
And when Im in a new city, Im usually compelled to pick something different and exciting to try.

And my go-to post-vacation meal isBalsamic-Butter Salmon Bitesand a Caesar saladheres why.
One of my favorite sources of protein, salmon is quick-cooking and an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids.
Not only does the nutrient help support cognitive function and heart health, it can also help reduce inflammation.
Since our bodies cant produce omega-3s, we have to get them through supplements orfoodslike salmon.
And lets not forget about the salad.Romaine lettucealso contains some antioxidants that may help decrease inflammation.
Plus, the leafy green is a good source offolate, a key nutrient for heart health.
The result is a slightly sweet glaze that stands up well against the fish.
Or try another flavor combination on the fish with ourLemon-Garlic Salmon Bitesfor an equally tasty meal.
