Salmon with Baked Zucchini Noodles Mediterranean Style

For the celebration of World Health Day. The diet I follow, which is for hypertension, is very similar to the Mediterranean diet, so all the ingredients suggested for the latter suit me very well. This dish is rich in vegetables, healthy fats, fiber, omega-3, and protein, which I accompanied with quinoa to increase the amount of protein and fiber.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare all the ingredients. You can buy zucchini already spiralized or make it at home with a spiralizer. If you don't have one, you can cut it into thin strips. Za'atar is a spice blend from Middle Eastern cuisine that gives food a delicious flavor. I buy it from a brand that offers a great variety of spices and seasonings.
- 2
Rub the salmon fillet with olive oil and sprinkle with za'atar. Separately, mix all the vegetables with the olives, garlic, and tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- 3
Place in a baking dish and put the salmon in the middle. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness. Serve with quinoa and drizzle with a few drops of lemon juice. Enjoy!

Healthy carrot / zucchini "pasta" Healthy carrot / zucchini "pasta"
This is more of an idea than a recipe and it's not even my idea. I've seen it on multiple places online so there's no single person to credit.Typical pasta has a ton of calories per serving and so whenever I eat it I only eat a small portion and don't add much sauce or cheese. But where's the fun in that? :( Besides, pasta is not really nutritious at all.Well say hello to carrot "pasta"! Each carrot has less than 40 kcal and 1 zucchini less than 20. 1 serving = 2 carrots or zucchinis so you can add as much sauce and toppings as you like! :D You'll also be eating at least 1 serving of veggies without even noticing!You can use this "pasta" in any recipe that calls for spaghetti or noodles, even pasta carbonara! bi11ie -
