In our quest to be more healthful, we’ve been trying to eat more seafood. Lucky for us, we’ve discovered a great local seafood vendor at our local farmer’s market. We’ve gotten mostly salmon, but also made a classic favorite pecan crusted rainbow trout and it’s amazing the taste of freshness. You can taste the difference, both fish have been full of flavor without any “fishiness” and a recipe like this pineapple salmon really lets the flavor shine through!

In addition to being more healthful in the food department, I’ve also been doing a lot of strength training and cardio. I’ve completed 28 days of PIIT28, and now am alternating going through PIIT 1.0 and taking barre classes these days. It’s definitely intense, but seeing the progress and feeling stronger makes it worthwhile. I haven’t seen an incredible change in my waistline or shedding pounds, but I have seen improvements in my energy levels, posture, and definitely feel my muscles getting stronger.

With trying to fit in at least a 30 minute workout every day and trying to 10k steps, and trying to eat healthier, it’s great to have this easy, tasty, and healthy recipe in my back pocket! It’s a super easy weeknight recipe, or perfect for a dinner party to make a lot without taking you away from the party. It would be easy to change the recipe for another cut of fish if you so prefer, just make sure it’s something that would bake well!
