SMOKED MACKEREL SALAD WITH MUSTARD DRESSING

Last weekend I tried for the first time smoked mackerel, and I literally felt in love with it.
It is an oily fish, thus a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, that are important for our cardiovascular health because they help lower the levels of triglycerides and "bad" cholesterol in the blood.
With just a few ingredients you can have a tasty salad, perfect as complete packed lunch or dinner.

MUSTARD SALMON WITH PEA&CELERY MASH

I was looking for a new idea to prepare a salmon fillet when I ran into this amazing recipe.
The original one calls for celeriac but I substituted it with celery and the result was really satisfactory! A simple way to liven up usual, plain mashed potatoes.
The salmon, then, covered with mustard, tasted fancy and delicious.
A surprisingly easy and quick recipe to prepare with just a few ingredients!
