SEAFOOD SUNDAY

Salmon is one of the healthiest fish one can eat. Today's recipe from TASTE OF HOME HEALTHY COOKING combines a number of healthy ingredients, spinach, oranges, walnuts, as well as salmon. Fall can be one of the best seasons to fire up the grill. So get out there and try a new seafood recipe!

6 tbsp. thawed orange juice concentrate divided
1/2 tsp. salt, divided
1/2 tsp. paprika

2 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 c. chopped walnuts, toasted
4 1/2 tsp. balsamic vinegar
