Foodie Friday: Super salmon tacos

Foodie Friday

This week’s recipe is brought to you by nutritionist and Tassal ambassador Susie Burrell and it’s both delicious and highly nutritious courtesy of the array of ‘super’ ingredients within. “The benefits of eating Tassal salmon regularly is more wide-ranging than most people realise. Fuelling my family with the right foods is a key part of my role as a mum and salmon is one of the most nutrient dense options out there. Rich in Omega-3 fats and high in protein, it contains vitamin D, Vitamin E and a range of B group vitamins and antioxidants too,” says Susie.

Clearly packed full of nutritional goodness, salmon can also have positive effects on memory function as consumption of it has been shown to slow cognitive decline.
