November 10, 2020 By lovecheflaura 1 Comment

Honey-Mustard Sheet Pan Salmon is the ultimate healthy weeknight dinner. Not only is prep incredibly easy, clean up is even easier! This salmon has a tangy and sweet sauce poured over top and baked until golden brown. Accompanying the salmon is roasted fingerling potatoes and crunchy roasted broccoli.

Mixing sauce in a bowl with a spoon

How to make Honey-Mustard Sheet Pan Salmon:

  • The first step in making this salmon recipe is to wash and cut the fingerling potatoes. Then cut them in half, toss in some oil and lay cut side down on the sheet tray. These potatoes will be baked until half way cooked, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, the broccoli is chopped and also tossed in oil. The sauce for the salmon which is composed of stone ground mustard, honey and garlic powder is mixed together.
  • Once the potatoes are half way cooked, the broccoli is spread out into an even layer on the sheet tray along with the salmon. The honey-mustard sauce is poured over top and then a sprinkle of paprika. The whole meal will bake in the oven for another 20 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through and the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

What type of salmon to use:

Wild vs. farmed:

In my opinion, buying wild caught salmon and fish in general is always best. The majority of farmed salmon is extremely fatty and the fish can be fed red dye pellets to help dye the flesh that signature salmon pink. The salmon also can be contaminated with lice due to the crowded pens, treated with antibiotics and can spread disease to wild salmon. Farmed salmon is most commonly refereed to as Atlantic Salmon in grocery stores and on restaurant menus. If possible, always opt for wild salmon.

I purchase my wild caught salmon from Sitka Salmon Shares. I know I have talked about them in the past but every year I am amazed by this company. Sitka Salmon catches fish that are in season using minimal negative ecological impact fishing methods. They also use family-owned Alaska fishing companies that put quality first and handle fish one at a time and with care.

...our fish come from sustainable fisheries in Alaska and are caught using fishing methods that minimize negative ecological impacts. You’ll never find a fish from us caught with high impact trawl or bottom trawl gear.

Coho Salmon vs. Sockeye Salmon:

Coho salmon is a bit milder compared to sockeye salmon and has a lighter pink flesh. Sockeye is the opposite of coho and is a very deep red and has more of a fishy taste. I have tried this recipe using both coho salmon and sockeye salmon. If you decide to use king salmon, please note the cooking times may vary since king salmon is thicker and more meaty.

My favorite sheet pans to use are USA Pans. I have both the full sheet pan and a half sheet pan and I love them both. They are aluminized steel and have a unique ridged shape for even air and heat distribution. USA Pans also makes bakeware such as muffin tins and cake pans.

Dairy-free Vanilla Ice Cream is made with coconut Dairy-free Vanilla Ice Cream is made with coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla for a simple and delicious dessert. This ice cream can be used as the base of a milkshake, a banana split, or enjoyed by itself.⁠

I went dairy-free almost 7 years ago. Nut milk suc I went dairy-free almost 7 years ago. Nut milk such as almond and coconut quickly became my go-to for coffee creamer, smoothie bases, etc... What I didn't really think about when it came to nut milk was what was in them.⁠
⁠
It's nearly impossible nowadays to find a nut or seed-based dairy-free milk without added preservatives, sugar, and stabilizers. Stabilizers such as guar gum, gum arabic, and carrageenan wreck havoc on your gut. If you don't have time to make your own, I highly recommend @malk The only ingredient in their products is the nut they are making milk out of. And those nuts are organic! Added bonus! So if you don't want to use my 2- 2-minute nut milk hack, try and buy your nut milk as cleans s possible.⁠
⁠
Grab the recipe for this 2-Minute Almond Milk through the link in my profile! And yes, this hack works for all kinds of nuts and seeds 🙃⁠

I have really been loving my smoothies lately. Smoothies are a great way to get a bunch of greens into your diet. Just add a few handfuls of spinach or another green and blend away 🌿!⁠
⁠⁠
This Mint Smoothie is a McDonald's Shamrock Shake copycat, but a whole lot healthier. It is so minty and refreshing! Top it off with some raw cacao nibs for a mint chip kind of vibe 🤩! ⁠

⁠
I know I'm posting this well before lunch, but I wanted to give you lots of time to go to the grocery store for tonight's dessert 😂⁠
⁠
I am all about indulging in dessert once in a while. I mean, I used to be a pastry chef. I love my sweet treats! But if you do, make it a little bit more tasty and a lot more healthy. ⁠
⁠
Cookies and Cream Milkshake has decadent cookies blended with either homemade vegan vanilla ice cream (or your favorite store-bought ice cream for an even easier recipe!). This milkshake is similar to an Oreo milkshake, but it's vegan, dairy-free, and doesn't contain all the questionable ingredients that are in an Oreo cookie 😍⁠

Freshly baked bagels are one of my favorite things Freshly baked bagels are one of my favorite things in the world 🤩! Bagels are not easy to make. They require making the dough, rising the dough, shaping the dough, boiling the dough, topping the dough with your favorite toppings, and then finally baking the dough. This is a common reason bagels are not made at home.⁠
⁠
Thankfully, this recipe has only 6 ingredients and doesn't require rising or boiling! I mean, we all need some easy AND delicious recipes in our lives! And before you ask, yes, these bagels are also nut-free!⁠
⁠
When we start to dive into paleo baking, one of the most common baking flours is almond flour. Unfortunately, a lot of people avoid nuts for allergies or other reasons. This recipe uses two paleo-compliant flours, tapioca starch, and coconut flour which are both nut-free 🙌🏼! Thank the breakfast Gods! ⁠

All this sunny and warm weather in Northern Michig All this sunny and warm weather in Northern Michigan has got me excited for summer ☀️!!

Traditional almond milk and other nut milk are mad Traditional almond milk and other nut milk are made by blending roasted or soaked nuts in water and then straining the liquid. This 2-Minute Almond Milk uses ground almond butter (my favorite is from @sunandswellfoods) blended with water for quick and easy homemade nut milk that has no added oils, preservatives, or stabilizers. Yay for a happy tummy 🤗!⁠
⁠
This recipe is incredibly easy! Blend all the ingredients on medium for about two minutes. The almond milk will go from a tan color to beige and almost white when it's ready. Once blended, pour into a large glass container such as a pitcher with a lid and store it in the fridge for up to three days 🙌🏼!⁠
⁠
If you're not an almond fan, don't worry! The options for making fresh homemade nut milk from nut butter are endless. Try the recipe with cashew butter, hazelnut butter, or even sunflower butter for a nut-free option ✨⁠

I’m just going to say it and get it out of the w I’m just going to say it and get it out of the way: LUMPY BONE BROTH IS NORMAL! I just needed to say it before we continue 😂⁠
⁠
As I said, thick and lumpy broth is normal! It means you made a gut-healing and highly nutritious liquid that you can now use in all sorts of dishes. Lumpy and thick means lots of collagen and protein!⁠ ⁠
⁠
Making your own chicken bone broth at home is not only incredibly easy, but it’s also less expensive and healthier. Why would I want to buy store-bought chicken broth, chicken stock, or chicken bone broth? Depending on the brand, there can be added cane sugar and natural chicken flavor. What? Isn’t what I am buying already chicken-flavored? Why do I need more flavor? Also, high-quality bone broth is expensive! Like 12 bucks for 2-3 cups expensive! Making your own bone broth at home is easy, delicious, and inexpensive. ⁠
