HEALTH & BENEFITS

Salmon is a great source of high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which have been linked to numerous health benefits, including reducing inflammation and lowering the risk of heart disease.
Leeks are also packed with vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, and K, and fiber to support digestive health.
However, this pie is also high in calories, so it should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
