Fruity Quinoa and Grilled Salmon Ingredients:
- 1.25 lb salmon fillet
- 1/2 head green cauliflower
- 7 oz white quinoa
- 4 medium size scallions
- 1 lemon
- 3–4 oz blueberries
- 4 strawberries
- 3 oz mango chunks
- salt
Servings: 4 meals
Calories: 386kcal
Ingredients
- 1.25 pounds salmon filtes
- 1/2 head green cauliflower can use any cauliflower
- 7 oz white quinoa can use any color quinoa
- 4 medium scallios
- 1 Lemon
- 3-4 ounces blueberries
- 4 large strawberries
- 3 oz mango chunks
- Salt as desired
Instructions
- Cut salmon fillet into 4 pieces, wash with cold water, season with salt. In a non-stick grill pan over medium heat cook salmon fillets abut 5 minutes each sides. ( get rid of the skin after cooking. It is too fatty! ) Serve 125 g for each container.
- Bring water to a boil in a pot and boil as much as quinoa you like. ( I always cook extra and put the remaining quinoa in the freezer to use later in salads, omelette, oatmeal etc.. ) Drain, measure with 1/2 cup for each container. Chop one scallion for each container and mix fruits evenly.
- Wash green cauliflower, cut into large pieces. Place a strainer over a pot filled with 1 inch water (shallow enough that the water doesn’t touch the strainer). Place chopped cauliflower florets in the strainer and cover with a lid. Steam as tender as you like.
- Serve everything in containers with 1/4 lemon. Before you eat, microwave only salmon and cauliflower (if you like) in another plate. Squeeze lemon on all ingredients 🙂
