Salmon Foil- Live Young LifestyleSummer is just around the corner, and BBQs will be firing up across the country. Most of the foods people traditionally like to cook (hot dogs, hamburgers, & ribs) are not very good for you. Even barbecued chicken and grilled veggies are now questionable – if they are charred – which is, of course, almost inevitable on the open flame. Uggh! Those delicious (and desired, until now) blackened bits of goodness obtained by grilling have been linked to cancer-causing agents. So, I was on a mission this week to find a way to cook the healthiest of foods… on the grill, without the charring. In the time it takes you to grill a nitrate-laden hot dog, you can have a char-free, healthy piece of omega 3- rich salmon. And, if others in your family still want traditional barbecue fare, you can cook the ribs, chicken, hot dogs and hamburgers side-by-side with this piece of fish. Hooray!Darnell Cox- Live Young Lifestyle

Salmon Foil- Live Young LifestyleThis recipe is so fresh and easy. It just screams summer! And, because you are cooking this dish in the foil wrapper, there is no need for that nasty task of scraping the barbecue grill. Healthy eating and easy clean-up?
