Dinner Tonight: Pan Seared Sockeye Salmon and Basil Pesto w/ Green Beans, Sweet Corn, and Whole Grain Bread


I had a Pan Seared Sockeye Salmon and Basil Pesto with a Lemon Wedge. I seasoned the Salmon with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt, McCormick Grinder Black Peppercorn, and Parsley. I then pan seared with Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 3 1/2 minutes per side. When done I topped it with Basil Pesto and a Lemon Wedge. The Salmon contains those healthy omega-3′s that we need to be incorporating into our diet!

 For sides I had Green Beans and Sweet Corn along with Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. I tried a can of Del Monte Summer Crisp Whole Kernal Golden Sweet Corn and loved it! Great flavor and only 80 calories and 16 carbs. The Del Monte Cut Green beans are 20 calories and 5 carbs and the Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread 80 calories and 16 carbs. So for 3 sides it's only a total of 180 calories and 37 carbs! Not bad at all. For dessert later a Mini Banana Split. Using a Mini Banana, Breyer's Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream, Smucker's Sugar Free Hot Fudge Chocolate Topping, and a Tablespoon of Cool Whip Free. If you crave one at least make it as low calorie and low carb as you can.
