QUICK & FLAVORFUL MISO GARLIC TAHINI SALMON
Some nights, you just need a quick, delicious, and satisfying meal.
Something that feels a little fancy but comes together in minutes. That’s exactly why I love this Miso Garlic Tahini Salmon. It’s packed with umami, a little heat, and a touch of sweetness, all thanks to a simple but bold marinade featuring Everiday Foods Miso Garlic Chili Oil.

🍚 Fluffy white rice – to soak up all that umami goodness.
🥗 A fresh, crunchy green salad – for a light and refreshing contrast.
🥦 Steamed or roasted veggies – to keep things extra nourishing.
