Salmon Florentine - Guide Recipe
Light , creamy salmon dish that’s easy to make and done in about 20 minutes. Salmon Florentine is made with juicy , tender , baked salmon and topped with creamy spinach and mushrooms.
I’m back with a delicious recipe for you! Well , “back” is a relative term , it’s more like I finally got a chance to finish the recipe post I’ve been working on for over a week. Little man and baby girl have been keeping me quite busy. I’m so happy that I saved some extra recipes this summer so that I had something to share with you guys.
This is one of my favorite recipes to make and one of my favorite recipes from the ones I’ve saved. First of all , salmon is my weakness! If I could , I would be eating salmon all day , every day. That could get quite expensive though. Combine this juicy , flaky salmon with some wine based cream sauce , spinach , and mushrooms and it’s a killer dish.
I actually couldn’t get enough of this dish while pregnant. Normally don’t love SO much spinach because of the after-taste fresh spinach tends to leave , but I was crazy for some spinach for the last 9 months. It’s a good thing because of how healthy spinach is. This whole dish is easy , fast , and packed with health benefits!
The best part is that you can serve Salmon Florentine with just about ANYTHING. You can serve this dish with mashed potatoes , over pasta , with extra veggies , or just as is. I love it with mashed potatoes if I’m feeling like I want a little extra comfort , and I love it as is , with extra spinach and mushrooms , if I’m feeling more of a lighter fare.
You and your family can decide what kind of comforting or healthy side you want to serve with this Salmon Florentine.
