So you might have heard that I’m doing Whole 30.  I’m hoping I can really stick it out for the whole 30 days, but I know it will be difficult, especially on the weekends when we usually go out to eat. But it can be done, I just need to plan out my meals. I’m mainly doing it because certain health issues are causing me to really pay attention to food labels and everything I put into my body, and I also think my body would do well with a healthy reset. So far I am enjoying everything I’m eating, and have a few new recipes in mind that I’m excited to try.  If you want to follow my daily meals and progress on Whole 30, I will be posting up a category filled with my Whole 30 Daily Meals.

This was the first, and we both enjoyed this salmon. It was pretty simple and fast, which was nice because I was super hungry when I made it and didn’t want to be waiting around to eat dinner. Whole 30 says no to dairy but yes to clarified butter or ghee, which is what I used. If you are not Whole 30, you can use regular grass-fed butter for the relish sauce.
