We would be celebrating with this basil & lemon baked salmon in foil, a few side dishes, and of course a huge peanut butter or chocolate cake for dessert.
Dessert was always my dad’s favorite.
It’s not often I get too personal on here. However, Father’s Day is this weekend and I can’t help but get a little emotional.
It’s been over nine years since I last hugged my dad. A hug I will never forget.
I can still feel his arms squeezing me tight and telling me how much he loved me.
HOW CAN YOU EVOLVE THIS HEALTHY SALMON RECIPE?

Try using dill instead of basil.
Switch up the citrus and try out limes or oranges!
Not a fan of baking salmon in foil? Feel free to use parchment paper instead.
