Come by Cafe Ventanas on ERC for the Real Deal on Nutrition. I will be at Cafe V during lunchtime dishing up the LiveWell meal and answering your nutrition questions.
Today's LiveWell meal at Cafe V is the Baked Salmon with an Indian-spiced Rub. Salmon is healthy because of its omega-3 fatty acids and protein content.
The LiveWell Salmon with Indian-spiced Rub has:
230 calories, 17g fat, 5g fiber, 14g protein in a 4-ounce portion.
Sometimes students ask me how salmon can be healthy when it appears to be high in fat - well, that is because the type of fat that makes up the majority of fat in salmon is good for you. Try not to "eat by numbers" when you are making your meal selections. Think of the big picture and your overall intake, not the individual grams of fat or numbers of calories.
