Sheet-Pan Salmon with Shaved Brussels Sprouts, Pomegranate, Walnuts, and Mint
“This dish has tons of flavor, as well as tons of nutrients. The salmon provides omega-3 fatty acids, while the pomegranates and walnuts (in addition to providing a delightful crunch) contain antioxidants.” —Seamus Mullen
