what you’ll need:

  • 24oz salmon

  • 2 bunches of kale (you can buy the bagged kind but I prefer the freshest form)

  • 1 red onion

  • Primal kitchen Caesar dressing

  • Persian cucumbers

  • Parmesan cheese (I bought freshly shaved)

  • Croutons -I used carrington farms garlic and herb quinoa puffs and it was delicious!!!

  • 1 lemon

  • Olive oil

  • Minced garlic

  • Salt and pepper

Instructions:

Start off by preheating your oven to 425 degrees. Take out a baking sheet and line it with foil, this will allow for easy clean up. (thank me later )

Take out the salmon and drizzle on about 1tbs olive oil and the juice from half a lemon. Season it with salt, pepper, and 1 tsp minced garlic. Then place 3 slices of lemon on the top of the salmon.

Bake for about 10-14 min until fully cooked. The cook time will totally depend on the thickness of your salmon. I like to broil mine at the end for about a min just to get the top a little crispy!

While the salmon is cooking, chop up your kale, cucumber, and onion.

Once the salmon is done it’s time to put it all together! To a bowl add chopped kale, diced red onion, cucumber, shaved Parmesan, croutons of choice and then your salmon. Finish it off with a drizzle of caesar dressing and enjoy!!! I save the leftover salmon and veggies and make the salad again for lunch the next day!
