Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large salad bowl, add the fresh spinach as the base for your salad.

  2. 2

    Add Fresh Vegetables

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl. Slice the cucumber and red onion thinly and add them as well.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Slice it and add to the salad.

Grilled Salmon Preparation

  1. 4

    Marinate the Salmon

    In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture over the salmon fillets and let them marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 5

    Preheat the Grill

    While the salmon is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 6

    Grill the Salmon

    Once the grill is hot, place the marinated salmon fillets on the grill. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 7

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Combine Salad and Salmon

    Once the salmon is grilled, allow it to rest for a few minutes. Then, flake the salmon into large pieces and add it to the salad.

  2. 9

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients.

  3. 10

    Serve

    Serve the grilled salmon salad immediately, garnished with additional cherry tomatoes or avocado if desired.
