Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss 1 medium cubed sweet potato, 1 medium sliced zucchini, and 1/2 cup diced bell peppers with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp turmeric, spreading in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Step 2: Bake for 20 minutes until vegetables are tender and edges are slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
  3. Step 3: While vegetables roast, pat 6 oz salmon fillets dry, season with 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp turmeric, and 1 tsp lime juice, then place atop roasted vegetables and bake 12 more minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.

How do I store leftover Rainbow Skin-Soil Veggie Bowl with Turmeric Salmon?

Refrigerate in a covered airtight container for up to 3–4 days (FDA FoodKeeper guideline for cooked fish).

For aromatics, dried herbs at ⅓ the volume of fresh work in a pinch. The full ingredient list is shoppable on Instacart so you can see substitutes in real time.

How do I scale Rainbow Skin-Soil Veggie Bowl with Turmeric Salmon for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 1 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 1). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
