Salsa Salmon

salsa + salmon = a winning combination

This is a delicious low-calorie recipe (146 calories per serving).

I enjoy any recipe with salsa in it.

And what is really cool about this recipe is that you can make your own salsa. I enjoyed the process. 

If you have a favorite salsa and are not too keen on making your own, you can just dump your favorite salsa on top instead.

Ingredients:

2 medium plum tomatoes, chopped

1 small onion, coarsely chopped

1 clove garlic, peeled and quartered

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped (Make sure you use gloves when you handle it.)

2 tsp. cider vinegar

1 tsp. chili powder

1/2 tsp. ground cumin

2-4 dashes hot sauce (I used more.)

1 1/2 pounds wild salmon fillet, skinned and cut into 6 pieces

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400.

2.  Place tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeno, vinegar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and hot sauce to taste in a food processor; process until finely diced and uniform.

3.  Place salmon in a large roasting pan; spoon the salsa on top.  Roast until the salmon is flaky on the outside but still pink inside, about 15 minutes.
