Healthy Mediterranean Salmon Bowl Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets (about 4-6 oz each)
• 2 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
• 1 cucumber, sliced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 lemon, juiced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh herbs (parsley or dill) for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
3. While the salmon is baking, prepare the salad. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chickpeas.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create a dressing.
5. Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
6. To serve, divide the salad among four bowls, top each with a salmon fillet, and drizzle with the dressing. Garnish with fresh herbs.
