TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE: While my enthusiasm for cooking has grown immensely over the past few years, I still feel mostly reluctant to toss my personal recipe books aside and approach the task with new original ideas and ingredients when it comes to traditional dishes like this one.

Everything can be easily made in about 30 minutes or less, which makes it a brilliant, balanced meal for those busy week nights.

Salmon is rich in Omega-3. Everyone heard about Omega-3 and we see all types of fish oil available at the pharmacy.

But what is Omega-3?

Omega-3 fatty acids (also known as n-3 or ω−3) are a family of unsaturated fatty acids include α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The health benefits of Omega-3 were discovered in the 1970s: virtually no one from the Greenland Inuit Tribe have any cardiovascular disease. Why? It is because they eat large amount of seafood! There is now strong evidence showing that Omega-3 reduce levels of blood triglyceride (fatty material circulating in blood) and VLDL (aka “bad cholesterol”) as well as reduce the risk of heart attacks. Preliminary studies also show that Omega-3 might be helpful in treating depression and anxiety. There are also debates going on about the anti-cancer effects (particularly breast, colon and prostate cancer). So eat more salmon now!
