Salmon Salad Ingredients

Method

Salmon Salad Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens. Top with crumbled bleu cheese, craisins, candied walnuts, chopped green onion, and diced avocado.

  3. 3

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Slowly drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil while whisking until the dressing is emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    Once the salmon has cooled slightly, flake it into large pieces and place it on top of the salad. Drizzle the apple vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Divide the salad into individual serving bowls and enjoy immediately.
