Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets about 150g each
- 1 cup quinoa cooked
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1/2 cucumber diced
- 1/2 avocado sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for grilling
Instructions
- Prepare the Quinoa: Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water. In a pot, combine the quinoa with 2 cups of water or broth and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil; then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- Grill the Salmon: While the quinoa is cooking, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the salmon for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and flaky.
- Assemble the Bowl: In a large bowl, layer the cooked quinoa at the bottom. Add the baby spinach, diced cucumber, and sliced avocado on top. Place the grilled salmon fillets over the mixture.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately! You can drizzle with a little extra olive oil or a squeeze of lemon for added flavor.
