Why it fits
Salmon provides 32 g of protein per serving along with omega-3-rich fats, while sweet potato and green beans add fibre and slow-releasing carbohydrates. Baking keeps added fat modest and lets the ingredients speak for themselves. A classic balanced plate of protein, colourful vegetables and a wholesome starch.
