SaveSummary
This quick and easy recipe makes an ideal weeknight dinner. This dish is high in vitamin B6 (from the salmon and walnuts), and I recommend eating it during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle to help build up progesterone levels. High levels of selenium, magnesium, and vitamin B12 make this dish a nutritional powerhouse. High levels of alpha- linolenic acid (ALA) found in walnuts have been shown to have anticarcinogenic and anti- inflammatory properties.
