Crab Stuffed Salmon Recipe

A few days ago a friend of mine asked me for this Crab Stuffed Salmon Recipe. I made it for the first time about a year ago for a holiday dinner. It tastes delicious, it’s filling, and a healthy meal option. I used Pacific Salmon to create this recipe. It’s easy to overcook and dry salmon out, so make sure to keep a watchful eye on the oven!

Salmon tastes really good, but did you know it’s good for you? Salmon is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, potassium, selenium and vitamin B12. Omega-3 is vital to proper brain function and heart health. Omega-3 can also help fight against Cancer and lower the risk of many chronic diseases. So if you like to eat fish, salmon would be a great choice!

I chose to use fresh herbs to compliment this dish, and you can read all about why you should use fresh herbs as well here!
