Prep and Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups fresh spinach, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped broccoli, packed (see optional cooking instructions)
  • 1/2 medium avocado, cubed
  • 1/2 cup tomato, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, sliced
  • 2.5 oz canned sockeye salmon (half of a 5oz can), drained and crumbled
  • 2 TBS feta or Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1-1/2 TBS Mediterranean Dressing
  • Optional:
  • add 1 tsp lemon juice

Directions:

  1. Slice onion and let sit for 5 minutes.
  2. Separate broccoli florets with small stems from the large, thick stem. Finely chop florets and small stems into ¼ inch pieces. Let broccoli sit for 5 minutes. We recommend chopping small for best flavor in the salad.
  3. Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss with Mediterranean Dressing. Add more lemon juice if desired.
Serves 1

Note: Many people find that broccoli is more tender and digestible when cooked. If you decide to cook your broccoli for this salad, follow the instructions for chopping broccoli above, and steam it for 5 minutes before adding to the salad.
