Place the salmon filets in a large zipped-top bag. Whisk the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger together in a medium bowl (I added a sprinkle of dried parsley for color– try chopped scallion!)
Pour half of this sauce over the salmon filets, coating them thoroughly. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or up to 4 hours.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350ยฐF (177ยฐC). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
Line the marinated salmon filets on the baking sheet. You can hold onto this used marinade– see step 5.
Bake for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness (about 10 minutes per 1-inch thicknessโ measured from the thickest part of the filet).
You can broil the salmon for the last 3 minutes for crispier edges.
Meanwhile, begin steaming the broccoli and reducing the glaze. First, the broccoli: fill a large saucepan with 1 inch of water.
If you have a steamer, place it inside. Bring water to a boil. Add the broccoli.
Cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook for 6-7 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and tender.
Now, the glaze:
Pour the remaining, unused marinade into a small saucepan or skillet. If you want, you can add the remaining (used) marinade as well.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat low-medium and allow to simmer for 4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool and thicken.
Remove cooked salmon from the oven. Some of the glaze may have browned on the edges.
You can discard this.
Garnish the salmon with any of the listed options. Serve with steamed broccoli and additional glaze.
Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat to your liking.
Make ahead tip:
You can marinate the salmon up to 4 hours in advance. If needed, you can extend to 8 hours.
You can steam the broccoli and reduce the unused marinade (steps 4 and 5) ahead of time as well.
Heat oven to 350ยฐF. Use lightly floured hands to press 3/4 of the cookie dough onto bottom and up side of 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Bake 12 to 15 min. or until golden brown; cool completely.
Meanwhile, roll remaining cookie dough into 6 (1-1/2-inch) balls; place 2 inches apart, on baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 min. or until golden brown.
Beat pudding mix and milk with whisk 2 min. (Pudding will be thick.) Add 1/4 cup peanut butter; mix well.
Stir in 1/2 cup COOL WHIP; spread onto bottom of crust. Top with remaining COOL WHIP, spreading to within 1 inch of edge. Refrigerate 2 hours or until filling is firm.
Remove rim of pan carefully. Cut each cookie in half; insert, cut sides down, into top of pie.
Microwave remaining peanut butter in microwaveable bowl on high 45 sec. or until melted; stir.
Melt chocolate as directed on package. Drizzle peanut butter, then chocolate over pie; sprinkle with nuts.

18 FAT BURNING FOODS
1. Lean organic meats
Since protein has a thermogenic effect- meaning it causes your body to burn more calories to simply digest, it is a good calorie to consume.
*Go for chicken or turkey, as d they are typically lower in fat!
2. Coconut
Rich with medium-chain triglycerides, coconut can seriously help you burn fat.
This is because MCFAS (medium-chain triglycerides) can increase the livers metabolism rate by up to 30%.
*In simpler terms, it encourages the body to burn fat.
3. Fish
When you consume fish, it influences Leptin in a positive way.
Leptin is a hormone that regulates fat storage within the body, therefore you can also count it on your list.
4. Green tea
Green tea contains catechins, which is a certain type of phytochemical that has an effect on the metabolism.
This then helps to promote fat oxidation and thermogenesis, as it degrades norepinephrine, the fat burning hormone.
5. Avocado
Avocado boosts the rate of your metabolism and speeds up the conversion of fat into energy.
11-17 grams of fiber
*Therefore eating this little beauty really is a great tool for slimming down, as it will help you stave of those hunger pains and cravings.
6. Green leafy vegetables
Green leafy vegetables are full of vitamins A and C.
These vitamins are a great way of reducing oxidative stress, and cutting out/down the stress hormones of the body, so that the body doesn’t store them as belly fat.
7. Cinnamon
Most of you are probably aware by now that excess sugar in the blood can lead to excess fat storage.
*The beauty of cinnamon is that it can regulate blood glucose levels.
This will in return reduce your food cravings, stop you from feeling sluggish and make you overall feel better throughout the day.
8. Grapefruit
Since grapefruits have been found to lower levels of insulin in the body, this in return prevents the body from storing more fat.
9. Eggs
Eggs have been known to contain a lot of cholesterol.
However in recent studies, it has been proven that cholesterol in food does not raise cholesterol in the blood.
In fact eggs reduce cholesterol.
*They also have quite a bit of protein, which leads to the person whom is consuming them feeling fuller longer.
10. Chillies and hot peppers
Capsaicin is a compound that helps protein structures in the body break down fat.
This gives a fat burning effect.
The good news is that capsaicin is found in chillis and hot peppers such as habaneros, and as a result of this affect, they are known to reduce belly fat.
11. Flaxseeds
Packed with finer and omega-3s, flaxseeds and flaxseed oil are very common health foods these days, and for good reason.
Once consumed they attract oil double toxins that are in the fat tissues of the body, and then they can get those toxins out of the body.
*This means at the end of this process there will be fewer fat stores.
12. Tomatoes
Not only are tomatoes delicious, but also have a substantial amount of fiber.
They contain lycopene, which provides antioxidants, which in return helps the oxidation process.
*This will obviously prevent certain diseases from occurring.
13. Nuts
Nuts are very nutritious. Well, that is if you eat the right kind, and they’re indeed many to choose from.
They are a great source of magnesium, which in itself is mood boosting.
*Studies have shown that nuts in the diet help control weight, reduce heart disease and also diabetes.
14. Spices
Cayenne is an extremely hot spice. It lowers blood glucose levels within the body and reduces the risk of excess insulin lurking around and storing fat.
Turmeric is another great spice. Usually found in Indian dishes, it is one of the highest known sources of the antioxidant beta-carotene, which helps protect the liver from free radical damage.
15. Quinoa
Have you been searching for a substitute for rice or potatoes?
Then quinoa is your perfect match.
*It is both packed with lots of vitamins and also low on the GI score. It also promotes satiety.
16. Bananas
Bananas do indeed have some fructose, but they also contain fiber, so they are fine to eat.
The starch that is found in bananas turns into a fatty acid in the gut by the good bacteria.
*This metabolizes fats, which is known to decrease obesity.
17. Lentils
Lentils contain fiber, which not only helps you feel full in-between meals, but will also keep your blood sugar levels from spiking.
*Lentils also contain iron, and if you are deficient in this then it will slow your metabolism down.
18. Broccoli
Broccoli contains fiber, which is known to keep you feeling full, but also contains sulforaphane, which is a phytonutrient.
