Salmon Stir-Fry

This is another one of Jenn's recipes from For the Glow.  I knew it would be tasty just reading through the ingredients.  Plus, topping anything with avocado instantly makes it delicious.  This is a healthy and fast recipe that you are sure to enjoy.  Let's dig in...
Mix together orange juice (freshly squeezed) honey, and tamari sauce.  Set aside.
I have been going to the farmers markets around the Phoenix area lately and have really enjoyed picking out fresh and local food.  I was excited to use these plum tomatoes that I had picked up on a whim! 
Heat coconut oil in a large pan or wok and add broccoli.  Stir-fry for around two minutes. 
Add the salmon and green beans, cooking for another two minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients and cook until the salmon has cooked through, with the veggies still keeping a crunch.  
Add the orange dressing, cook for another minute.  Remove from heat, plate and serve. I topped with a slice of avocado.
The many different textures and flavors make this dish very tasty.  I really enjoyed the orange sauce as well, gave it a kick while adding flavor.  It also helps that this dinner is very good for you!  

Happy Monday - here's to a good week!
