Ingredients
  

Potatoes and Squash

  • 1 cup diced fingerlings or potato of choice

  • ½ teaspon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon olive or avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt adjust to your preference

  • 2 servings/pieces salmon (preferably wild caught) make sure the salmon is at room temperature

Toppings and sides

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Add potatoes and butternut squash to a sheet pan lined with parchment or silicone. Toss with all the other ingredients in that section. Cook for 20 minutes.
  • Add maple syrup, butter, and all the ingredients that follow to a small bowl. Mix together. Brush over room temperature salmon. Let sit out while the veggies cook for 20 minutes.
  • After the 20 minutes is up, add the salmon to the sheet pan. Bake for 8-12 more minutes, until the salmon easily flakes with a fork. I like to use a meat thermometer and cook the salmon to 135 degrees.
  • Divide out salmon among two bowls/plates with veggies and grain (if using). Top with basil and dig in.
