This is absolutely one of my favorite dishes...healthy (check), nutritious (check), delicious (check), easy (check), and only one pan to wash (major bonus)!!! Seriously, my favorite protein is salmon and my favorite vegetable is asparagus, so this is major recipe WIN for me. Take this recipe up a notch by adding some brown rice, cauliflower rice, or butternut squash rice.
