  4. Yum! I love this dish – can’t wait to make it. Love the zoodles served with it!

  5. This sounds delicious! I’ve made a similar ‘sweet’ salmon before using brown sugar, but since I’ve cleaned up my diet and tried to eliminate processed sugar, this looks like a great replacement for that! I love using natural sweetners like honey and dates for my recipes now. Thanks for sharing, pinning!!
