Fresh Lemon & Herb Salmon Salad
15 mins
Easy
This vibrant salad brings together flaky, oven-roasted salmon and crisp greens, tied together by a bright, zingy lemon vinaigrette. It is a simple, nourishing meal that feels light yet keeps you satisfied throughout the afternoon.
A high-protein, heart-healthy salad featuring roasted salmon fillets served over a bed of mixed greens, cucumber, and radish, drizzled with a homemade lemon-dill vinaigrette. Ready in under 30 minutes.
For the best texture, let your salmon rest for five minutes after roasting before placing it on the greens. This keeps the salad crisp and prevents the heat from wilting the leaves too quickly.
