Notes:

  • Baby onions can be found packaged in the freezer section. They are also called “pearl” onions in some areas.
  • To make this meal Whole 30 omit the honey in the orange glaze.
  • This meal was baked using a standard Baking Sheet. {affiliate link}
  • Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your salmon, so keep an eye on it. My edges were overcooked, but the inside was perfect.
  • Why do I always insist on wild-caught salmon? Because farm raised in colored with dyes and fed a corn and who knows what else diet. It is also higher in Omega-3, which is the good fat!
  • Fresh salmon is best, but frozen is also delicious and easier to find!
