Superfood Salmon Salad
& Green Smoothie
With Talibah Simone
Falling short on ideas for making the most out of your kitchen cupboard? Nutritionist Talibah Simone, has chosen the superfood salmon salad and green smoothie to save the day. “The superfood salmon salad couldn’t be any richer in nutrients, from the salmon packed with omega 3 to the antioxidants in the blueberries combined with the magnesium packed spinach. The textures of the soft avocado and the crunch of the red cabbage with the sweet dressing makes such an enjoyable meal”.
What you’ll need
1 salmon fillet
Rocket
Spinach
Red cabbage
½ Avocado
Handful of pomegranates
Handful of blueberries
Seasoning for the salmon:
½ tsp dried parsley
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp black pepper
Honey mustard dressing:
1tbs dijon mustard
½ tbs honey
½ tbs white wine vinegar
½ tbs olive oil
½ tbs sea salt
1 tbsp parsley
How to prepare:
Preheat the oven to 200 C or 180 if you have a fan oven. Season the succulent salmon, place onto a non-stick or oiled tray and cook for up to 20 minutes.
Wash all the greens and lightly pat dry with a kitchen towel. Slice the red cabbage in half, then half again. Wash the blueberries and then slice the avocado.
For the dressing, combine all ingredients together and mix.
Place every ingredient into the bowl and drizzle over the honey mustard dressing.
Enjoy!
