I love FAST LUNCH ideas!
And recently I’ve been trying to eat more fish.
So…. I came up w/ 2 no cook SALMON LUNCHES I can make in a flash. ⚡️
The trick is using canned salmon because it’s one of the fastest, easiest ways to get more fish into your life.

First, let’s take a deep dive (pun intended) into the benefits of this fatty fish.
It’s loaded with healthy omega 3’s.
Omega-3’s are magical.
They’ve been linked to reducing inflammation, boosting heart health, and optimizing brain function…
Omega-3’s may bust stress, boost memory and reaction time, and increase brain gray matter, the tissue associated with higher intelligence.
When choosing canned salmon I try to buy wild. Wild salmon eat other organisms found in their natural environment. Farmed salmon are often fed a processed, high fat, high protein diet in order to produce larger fish.
