Notes
Tips:
1. I encourage having locally grown, organic food but I know many cannot afford that. The reason I say to have organic garlic is because it is much more potent!
2. Approximately 1 tsp

I didn’t realize that there is such a difference between organic garlic and the conventional one! I’m going to have to try this recipe without the cheese (since dairy gives me breakouts) since I love rice and salmon so much!
I was wondering what everyone thought about organic coconut sugar?? Anyone have any input?
