My Go-To Anti-Inflammatory Dinner
I started making this meal during a busy season of life when I was juggling autoimmune flares, toddler mom life, and working full time. I needed meals that were quick, nourishing, and free from my top allergens—and this one quickly became a staple.
Now, over 6 years into my keto journey, this recipe remains one of my favorites. It’s simple, flavorful, and leaves me feeling full without any post-meal inflammation.
Sometimes I’ll air fry the salmon and steam the green beans, or roast them all together for fewer dishes. And if I’m cooking for the family, I’ll toss in some sweet potato fries on the same tray. Easy, balanced, and everyone’s happy.
