Salmon avocado salad is a hearty bowl with 250 g salmon baked in 12 minutes, half an avocado, spinach leaves, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes. The dressing is simply lemon juice and a teaspoon of olive oil; most of the fat in the salad comes from the salmon and avocado.
The recipe makes 2 main-course servings. Based on calculations from the ingredients, each serving has about 29 g protein and 375 calories. Serve the salmon warm or chilled; it also works well packed for lunch the next day. Unlike a salmon, quinoa, and avocado bowl, this salad has no quinoa.

Instructions

Prepare the salmon
5 minPreheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F), or 180 °C (350 °F) for a fan oven (convection). Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel, place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 1 tbsp lemon juice.
Bake
12 minBake for 12 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Avoid baking it longer, as overcooking will dry it out.
Cut the vegetables
5 minSlice the cucumber, halve the tomatoes, and peel and slice the avocado. Wash and dry the spinach. Divide everything between two bowls.
Assemble the salad
3 minWhisk the remaining lemon juice with the oil and drizzle over the salad. Break the salmon into large pieces and place on top.
Tip: Drizzle the avocado with lemon juice immediately after slicing to keep it from browning. Thaw frozen fillets in the refrigerator and pat them dry thoroughly; nutritional values are calculated from the ingredients and are approximate.
