I can’t think of a better way to detox from the festivities this weekend and kick the week off on the right foot than with this Loaded Sesame Ginger Salmon Salad!
I know technically summer doesn’t start for a few more weeks, but I’m going for it. I’ve always considered my birthday the start of summer and since it’s in 2 short days (June 1st) and the month long celebrations are starting tonight we’re just doing it! Before we get to the birthday cake later this week, let’s kick things off on a healthy note. I leave for Greece in 2 weeks and the thought of putting on a swimsuit after the pizzas and burgers I’ve consumed in the last week is straight up horrifying. But never fear, I’ve got the solution! Loaded Sesame Ginger Salmon Salad is on the menu and it’s perfectly clean, majorly delicious and packed with all sorts of flavors and textures. You’re going to want it to be your new summer salad and I can’t blame you. It’s perfection.
Also – side note – the vinaigrette/dressing on this is out of this world. You might want a double batch because then you can drizzle it over veggies, another salad, grilled chicken, steak, pasta, quinoa, rice or just about anything else and call it a day.
