• 1 cup of rice

• 2 cups of water

• 1 cup of frozen veggie mix

• 1 fillet of salmon

• 2 tbsp. of vegetable oil

• Black pepper to taste

• 1 lemon wedged

Instructions:

1. Add 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water, and your frozen vegetable mix to a rice cooker. Turn it on and cook until ready. (If you don’t have a rice cooker, cook on the stovetop following the directions on the rice package.)

2. Place the salmon fillet on a plate and rub with oil and black pepper to taste.

3. Cook the salmon:
