A key point to the Mediterranean diet is reducing your consumption of saturated fats, which are found in red processed meats, dark meat poultry, full-fat dairy, butter and coconut and palm oils. Instead, the Mediterranean diet encourages you to replace those fats with healthier monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, found in fatty fish. Wild salmon is particularly rich in satisfying animal protein and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon can be grilled or baked and used as a main dish, or can come from a can to top salads and grain bowls.
