Salmon Salad and Curried Egg on Multigrain Bread

Wild salmon is widely available in cans. To ensure that you’re getting the most sustainable option, look for the blue Marine Stewardship Council logo on the label. The warming spices that make up curry powder—typically a combination of turmeric, coriander, cinnamon, and cumin, among others—also offer a wealth of health benefits, including boosting metabolism and decreasing inflammation.
