meal that packs a healthy dose of vitamin E and fiber.

into the egg mixture and dredge in almonds.
2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with unrefined coconut oil.
3. Sautee chicken on one side over medium heat for 3 minutes. Turn and cook for
an additional 3 to 4 minutes, until cooked through.

3. 2. Almond Crusted Salmon with
Caramelized Onions and Basil
Almond meal, made from ground raw almonds, forms the nutty topping on this baked salmon with
slowly caramelized sweet onions and fresh basil spooned over the top. Serve this dish as a main course
along with roasted or mashed sweet potatoes, steamed vegetables and a green salad.
Ingredients:
· 1 tablespoon butter
· 1 teaspoon coconut oil
· 1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
· Sea salt and pepper to taste
· 1/2 to 1 teaspoon lime juice
· 1/2 cup almond meal
· 4 teaspoons honey mustard or sweet prepared mustard
· 4 (4- to 6-ounce) skinless salmon fillets, skin removed
· 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
· 1/4 cup basil leaves
Direction:
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add onion, salt and pepper and cook, stirring
occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, 30 to 45 minutes. Stir in lime juice and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375ºF. Grease the bottom of a large baking dish with 1 teaspoon coconut
oil. Put almond meal into a wide, shallow dish and season salmon with salt and pepper. Brush the top
of each salmon fillet with mustard and then roll in almond meal, pressing to make sure it sticks.
Arrange salmon in prepared baking dish in a single layer and bake until just cooked through and flesh
flakes with a fork, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer salmon to plates, top with caramelized onions, garnish with green onions and basil and serve.
