Healthy, because
The salmon not only provides the vascular-friendly omega-3 fatty acids, but also brings a thick portion of B vitamins on the plate: 1 portion already covers the daily requirement of niacin, vitamin B6 and B12.
Even smarter
If no aluminium grill trays are available at the moment, you can also prepare the salmon in aluminium foil packets. By the way: You don't need to be afraid of bones; they can be easily removed after grilling, even by inexperienced people.
