Steelhead Trout with Fennel Celery Salad

I don't have a direct connection with anyone that has cystic fibrosis, however, I read an article on cystic fibrosis a while back, which enlightened me about the disease. I'm an avid foodie and I love to create recipes for all types of special diets. I like to share my recipes with others so that regardless of their diet restrictions, I may have a recipe catered just for their needs. This recipe is great for those suffering from cystic fibrosis. It contains oils from the nuts and cold water fish. The celery and fennel are great vegetables and pack good flavor. I hope that you will try this recipe and enjoy it.
