Salmon & Broccoli Breakfast

This is a great recipe for busy women who don’t have time to make an elaborate breakfast but want to avoid the high sugar content of most grab-and-go options. The method is simple: put coarsely chopped veggies and protein in one dish and bake while you get ready for your day. You can save time by chopping the vegetables and placing them in the baking dish the night before.
