What You Need To Make This Herb Crusted Salmon:

I love using Butcher Box! They ship me a monthly supply of all of my favorite wild caught and grass fed proteins. If you use my link HERE you can get $30 off of your first order.
Almond flour-This is what gives the salmon the crusted touch. I like using the Costco almond flour brand.
Honey mustard- I love using the 365 brand from Whole Foods.
Fresh parsley-I love using fresh parsley as the herb in this recipe.

To garnish:

Fresh lemon juice is always a good choice.

How To Make This Herb Crusted Salmon:

This recipe is so simple.
First, preheat the oven to 350.
Next, mix together all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl.
Now, use a marinating brush and brush the sauce over the salmon.
Cook in the oven for 20 minutes for medium well done.
- If you like your salmon less well done, cook it for 17 minutes. I prefer mine more well done at the 20 minute mark.

Can I Reheat This Salmon?

Yes! I suggest doing so in the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 and reheat for 5-10 minutes.

How Long Does It Last?

I suggest eating the salmon within 3 days of cooking it.
