Today's is about time to do something for the right balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. Therefore I have today a recipe for tasty gluten-free tortillas with salmon for you. But before you get started with the cooking, a few comments on the purchase of salmon.

Buyer of salmon raises above all the question whether wild salmon aquaculture is better. Fish from the wild appears only once to match Paleo.
