AND on Southern Plate/Southern Bite Meal Plan Monday

It is heart health month and I have been sharing easy recipes  like Super Food Salmon Salad, and tips to eat your way to a healthy heart with the Seafood Nutrition Partnership. I have worked in conjunction with this organization to promote heart health through consuming seafood or fish twice a week.  The 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend at least two servings of seafood per week to take in adequate amounts of lean protein, omega-3s, vitamins and minerals. Unfortunately, 80-90% of Americans are missing these critical nutrients. A simple salad like this Super Food Salmon Salad can help with that!

This month I have been on a bit of a media tour, sharing the message of heart healthy recipes, how to eat well for less and it has been very fun. I recently shared this Super Food Salmon Salad on WTHR and IndyStyle. Watch the WTHR segment HERE.

Super Food Salmon Salad

Eating seafood 2X week reduces the risk of dying from heart disease by 36%.  Eating seafood for essential Omega-3 fatty acids can prevent 84,000 deaths each year. Older adults who had the highest blood levels of the Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish lived, on average, 2.2 years longer than those with lower levels.
