Smoked Salmon Salad

This salad can be eaten throughout the week. To preserve freshness, keep the tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions in one bowl and the lettuce and feta in another bowl. This will allow your tomatoes and cucumbers to marinate throughout the week and will keep your lettuce from wilting. Be sure to wait to add your dressing until you are ready to eat your salad. This will also maintain freshness.

Always consult your Health Care Professional to check if this recipe is right for you.

Ingredients – serves 2

• 1 continental cucumber

• ¼ red onion

• 2 Roma tomatoes, diced

• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

• 1 tsp dried oregano

• ¼ cup rice vinegar

• ½ tsp salt

• ½ tsp pepper

• 2 cups (500 mL) mixed salad greens

• 1 avocado

• 112 g smoked salmon

• ¼ cup  feta cheese to taste

 

Vinaigrette dressing

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• ¼ cup red wine vinegar

• ¼ cup  extra virgin olive oil

• 1 tsp  Dijon mustard

• 1 tsp  honey

• ½ tsp  salt

• ½ tsp pepper

• Optional: swap salmon with chicken if desired. For a creamier taste, add ½ cup of plain Greek yogurt or plain cashew yogurt

 

Directions

1. Peel and cut cucumbers into thin rounds.

2. Cut onions into thin long slices. If you like onions, keep the slices larger but if you’re not as keen, dice them into small pieces.

3. Cut Roma tomatoes into small diced pieces.

4. Add vegetables to a large bowl with olive oil, oregano, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix and set aside.

5. In a dressing shaker or small bowl, combine minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Shake or stir until combined (add yogurt if desired).

6. In another bowl, add greens and slice or cube avocado on top. After the tomatoes and cucumbers have marinated in the rice vinegar for a few minutes, add them to the top of your salad along with a few slices of smoked salmon. Top with feta cheese and enjoy!
