Description
This Easy Spring Salmon Salad is refreshing, flavorful and super simple to throw together. Plus, it’s AIP, Paleo and anti-inflammatory.
Ingredients
For the Spring Salmon Salad:
- 1 lb salmon, cut into 4 fillets
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil
- sea salt to taste
- 8 cups baby spinach
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 4 radishes, sliced
- 1 small bunch chives, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
For the Paleo Ranch:
- 1/2 cup coconut milk yogurt (skip any with added gums, fillers, or sweeteners. Try this homemade AIP coconut yogurt recipe!)
- 3/4 tsp dried chives
- 3/4 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp dried dill
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. While the oven preheats, wash and prep the spinach, cucumber, radishes, chives and avocado.
- Place the salmon fillets on a lined sheet pan and drizzle with avocado oil and a sprinkle of sea salt. Roast at 425º for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- While the salmon roasts, add all the Paleo Ranch ingredients to a small blender and blitz to combine. (In a pinch, I have been known to just mix this with a spoon and it tastes just as good).
- Divide the spinach, cucumber slices, radish slices, chives and avocado slices among four plates. Top each with a salmon fillet and drizzle with ranch. Sprinkle with extra sea salt to taste. Enjoy!
