Paleo Salmon Power Bowl Ingredients

These Salmon Power Bowls require just 10 ingredients for the whole recipe – including the homemade dressing! I don’t know about you, but I love a flavorful recipe with minimal ingredients and minimal cleanup.

For the Salmon Power Bowls, you will need:

Wild Salmon – rich, flavorful and packed with nutrients and omega 3’s. For optimal nutrition, opt for wild salmon. If wild (born and raised) is not available, opt for wild caught.

Sweet Potato – for a savory, yet sweet flavor that satisfies even the strongest carb craving. Leave the skin on for a boost of fiber and nutrients.

Cauliflower Rice – to replace the grains in your typical grain bowl. I promise you won’t miss the grains, plus you’ll get an extra boost of fiber and nutrients. And the texture is spot-on.

Spinach – the perfect bed of greens on which to build your power bowl.

Avocado – for that luscious, creamy texture no power bowl can do without.

For the Maple-Balsamic Dressing, you will need:

Extra Virgin Olive Oil – for a buttery flavor and consistency that ties the dressing together.

Balsamic Vinegar – for a rich, complex, almost smokey flavor that pairs beautifully with all the other ingredients in these Salmon Power Bowls.

Maple Syrup – for a hint of sweetness.

Sea Salt – to make all the flavors shine.

How to make Paleo Salmon Power Bowls

First, preheat your oven to 425ºF. While the oven preheats, wash and cut your sweet potato into 1/2″ cubes, drizzle with 1/2 Tbsp avocado oil, sprinkle with 1/4 tsp sea salt and arrange on a sheet pan. Roast at 425ºF for 15 minutes.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, add all the dressing ingredients to a small mason jar or dressing bottle and shake to combine.

Pull the sweet potatoes out of the oven, flip the pieces over and push them to one side of the pan. Pour the cauliflower rice onto the open side of the sheet pan and spread into a thin layer. Add the salmon filets on top and drizzle a little more avocado oil and a sprinkle of sea salt on top. Place the sheet pan back in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and easily flakes with a fork.

Assemble your Salmon Power Bowls. Divide the spinach, sweet potatoes, cauliflower rice and salmon fillets among four bowls. Top with avocado slices and a drizzle of Maple-Balsamic Dressing. Enjoy!

How to store the leftovers

This recipe also makes excellent meal prep! Just save the ingredients in separate airtight containers in the fridge for 3-5 days. When ready to eat, arrange ingredients in a bowl, top with sliced avocado and Maple-Balsamic Dressing and enjoy! These Paleo Salmon Power Bowls taste great warm or cold.
