Why it's Low GI

Salmon with mushrooms and non-starchy vegetables is a light, protein-rich meal that barely moves blood sugar — a gentle low-GI dinner.

Method

Tap a step when it's done.

Heat the oven to 180°C (or 150°C and double the time).
Scale the fish, rinse and pat dry with kitchen paper. Wash and dry the vegetables.
Arrange everything in a baking dish. Add sage leaves and sprigs of oregano and lemon thyme. Season lightly with salt.
Cover with foil and bake for about 20 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
