As we strive to make more conscious choices in our daily lives, incorporating sustainable practices into our cooking can make a big impact. Today, we’re excited to share a delicious recipe for “Sustainably Sourced” meal that not only tastes amazing but also supports environmentally friendly practices.

Title: Sustainably Sourced

Ingredients:
– 1 lb sustainably sourced salmon fillet
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 lemon, sliced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried dill
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes
– 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
– Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place the sustainably sourced salmon fillet on the baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Squeeze half of the lemon over the salmon and sprinkle with minced garlic, dried dill, salt, and pepper.
3. Arrange the lemon slices on top of the salmon for extra flavor. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
4. While the salmon is baking, prepare the vegetables. In a bowl, toss the trimmed asparagus and cherry tomatoes with the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
5. Transfer the seasoned vegetables to another lined baking sheet and spread them out in a single layer.
6. Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the tomatoes are blistered.
7. Once the salmon and vegetables are cooked, serve them together on a large platter. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
8. Enjoy your sustainably sourced meal with a side of quinoa, brown rice, or a fresh green salad for a well-rounded and delicious dinner.
