Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 6 oz salmon fillet skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  2. Step 2: Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup rinsed quinoa and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
  3. Step 3: In a bowl, toss 1 cup chopped baby spinach, 1/2 diced cucumber, and 1/2 sliced avocado with 1 tbsp lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
  4. Step 4: To assemble, place cooked quinoa at the base of a bowl, add the spinach-vegetable mixture on one side, and top with the baked salmon fillet. Garnish with 1 tsp chopped fresh dill before serving.
