Baked Salmon with Corn and Apply Medley makes for a quick and delicious dinner. The tender, flaky salmon is seasoned to perfectly balance with the sweet corn and crisp apple flavor. The moisture from the corn and apples provides a beautiful bed for the salmon allowing for the crust from the salmon contrast in textures. It’s also stunning to look at it before you even dig in. The mix of savory and sweet creates a refreshing and light dinner.

The whole meal takes less than thirty minutes and requires very little technique or work. Fish can be tricky to cook but salmon is a forgiving fish and the medley provides even more range for dryness.

The salmon provides an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, beneficial for your heart. The fiber from the corn and vitamins from the apples offer a well rounded and low calorie dinner. The salmon also provides a ton of protein and healthy fats so it’s perfect for weight loss and muscle gain.
