Learn to make the most delicious salmon (and the easiest you’ve ever made) in your air fryer with this simple recipe. It comes out cooked perfectly every single time, and in case we didn’t mention, takes less then 10 minutes to make!
Salmon also makes the perfect healthy meal because t is rich in tryptophan and omega-3 fatty acids, EPA, DHA as well as vitamin B12 and B6. That means it helps the body produce serotonin, which gives us a mood boost, reduces inflammation, and helps protect the nerves in our brain.
