Ingredients

  • 1 head of Cauliflower
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 2 bell peppers diced
  • 2 crowns broccoli cut bitesize
  • 1 ¼ tsp taco seasoning divided

  • Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil, add cauliflower and cover.
  • Place salmon on foil and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp of the taco seasoning. Place slices of lemon over seasoning, and fold foil to make a pouch around salmon. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes- until salmon is cooked through.
  • In a large, heavy pan, heat oil on medium high until shimmery.
  • Add onion and peppers, cook until slightly browned- about 8 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
