Smoked Salmon Salad

Add to favorites
Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe. Plan Z Coach, Jen contributed this recipe. She loves smoked salmon and wanted to share this recipe.” Such an easy salad to make, and so delicious, too! Since leafy greens are unlimited you can double (or triple) the amount of greens used in this recipe if you want. I wanted my salad to have more salmon flavor so I went easy on the greens.”
Servings: Serves 2
Ingredients:
- cured or smoked salmon (4 oz per person is enough – it has quite a strong flavor)
- 2 large handfuls of the leafy green of your choice (I used baby spinach and threw in a handful of watercress for good measure)
- 1 cup of cherry tomatoes
- your favorite vinaigrette
Optional add-ons:
- green onions
- capers
- hard-boiled egg
- lemon wedge
Instructions:
The easiest salad prep in the world. Wash your salad greens, cut tomatoes in half, lay slices of salmon on the top and drizzle with your favorite dressing. Tip: if you set your ingredients out for 10 minutes before making your salad it will take the “refrigerator cold” edge off your salad when you put everything together. The flavors will meld better, and it won’t be so “frigid” on your tongue. Top with a little salt and pepper, you’re ready to eat. If you are looking to make it a little more special, you can add green onions (or even thinly sliced red onion if you don’t mind onion-breath afterwards), capers, a lemon wedge or a boiled egg.
Enjoy!
Cheers,

When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!

The Berghoff is a famous Chicago restaurant. Their creamed spinach is an institution in itself. This is my ZReduction version.

This is a takeoff of a cranberry bake recipe from Southern Living. This is homey, tasty, and not too sweet. Just a little cranberry twang but plenty of sweetness in the apples.
