  • 1/2 cup Cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 Cucumber
  • 1 tablespoon Red onion
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Prepare the Salmon

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the salmon fillet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Alternatively, you can pan-sear the salmon in a skillet over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes per side.

Assemble the Bowl

In a bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.

Add the Salmon

Once the salmon is cooked, flake it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the bowl.

Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Pour the dressing over the bowl and toss gently to combine.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
