You guys. I had a moment. A moment where I was about to give up. It was a Sunday morning (only Day 6 mind you of the Whole30) and I woke up feeling okay but after a few hours, I was tired, hungry and feeling a little dizzy. I wanted to just stuff some whole grain toast slathered with BUTTER in my mouth . .  but I didn’t.

So, this salad you guys. This easy Baked Salmon Salad to the rescue. I threw this together one day  . . because I had everything in my fridge remember. .  and it was glorious.

Baked Salmon Salad with Roasted Potatoes

Dressing makes about one cup.
Course: Main
Cuisine: Salad
Servings: 2
Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

For the dressing:

  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

For the salmon:

  • 1 lb. skin-on salmon fillet/s
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt and pepper

For the salad:

  • fresh mixed greens
  • cooked salmon broken into chunks
  • roasted red potatoes
  • hard boiled egg peeled and cut in half lengthwise
  • tomato wedges
  • microgreens

Instructions

For the dressing:

  • Using a mason jar or small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, while slowly pouring in the olive oil and continue to whisk together. Season with the salt and pepper and whisk again. Set aside.

For the salmon:

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and place on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle some olive oil over the top of the salmon; just enough to coat the salmon, don't over do it. Feel free to rub the olive oil over the salmon with your fingers or a pastry brush. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast for about 4 to 6 minutes per half-inch thickness of salmon. If you see white stuff around the edges of your salmon, you've cooked it for too long. Allow to cool for a minute or two and break into chunks for the salad.

For the salad:

  • To plate: arrange the cooked salmon chunks and roasted red potatoes on top of a full bed of fresh greens. Add on the hard boiled eggs and tomatoes. Garnish with the microgreens, drizzle on some dressing and enjoy!

    Alice, your Salmon+Boiled Eggs+Greens=Glorious indeed and far > bread – in my books anyway! You are doing so good on Whole 30 – like I said before, there’s no way I could have stuck it out a whole 24 hours! By the way – whatsthe reason behind the limitation of snacking on Whole 30?

      Hey Shashi! so, The Whole30 is not a diet, but a lifestyle change. . and way of living . . so they don’t think it’s good to snack or to keep doing “old habits” or old ways of eating. . I guess snacking can lead to poor choices or over eating? Anyway, they encourage you not to snack for these reasons in the book. . thank you so much for the comment!!! 🙂

    You’re better than me! I couldn’t do it.. well, I could, but I’m not even going to think about that right now! I won’t tell you what I had for lunch yesterday.. it was shameful! Did you get a new look on your blog?! Am I totally behind?! I love it, regardless 🙂 And this salad looks awesome! And so hearty. Perfect for the 3rd tri when I need “fish! fish! fish”.. or at least that’s what my Real Food for Mother and Baby book says.. I don’t usually like well-done salmon but this looks SO moist and tender. My hubs would jump for joy if I made this! He’s a salmon-lover, major
