Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 salmon fillets
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet and season with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
  2. Pop the salmon in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chickpeas, halved cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss well to combine.
  6. Once the salmon is beautifully cooked, carefully flake it into large pieces and add it to the salad bowl.
  7. Gently mix everything together, ensuring the salmon and dressing are evenly distributed. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container; the salad mix lasts 2-3 days while salmon is best fresh.
