Don’t hesitate to add your own touch to this easy salad bowl. Feel free to switch up the spices and ingredients. For this recipe I just popped the seasoned salmon into the oven and allowed it to bake for 20 minutes @ 400°F. As an alternative, feel free to pan sear the salmon. Use whatever method works for you. My motto is all about making things easy while preparing dinner. Cooking is supposed to be fun!
A couple things to note:
- the salmon could easily be swapped out with any fish of your choice or chicken if you prefer.
- Feel free to use your favorite salad blend: Romaine lettuce, Italian Blend, Kale, Garden Salad blend, or Spring Mix.
- Add your favorite salad toppings such as shredded carrots, sliced avocado, onion, or croutons.
