Servings: 4

Ingredients

Salmon

• 1 pound of salmon fillets
• 1 lemon, juice
• Beau Monde Seasoning or any seasoning you like to taste

Quinoa

• 1 cup quinoa, drained
• 2 cups of water
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes, quartered
• 2 cups minced arugula
• 3 tablespoons plain Greek-style yogurt
• 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 clove of garlic, chopped
• Dash sea salt

Directions:

Prepare the salmon.

• Preheat oven to 375°F or preheat grill to medium.
• Brush both sides of salmon with lemon juice and sprinkle with Beau Monde seasoning. Arrange the salmon in a large baking dish or place directly on the grill.
• Bake or grill the salmon until cooked through, about 25 minutes in the oven or 10 minutes on the grill.

Prepare the quinoa.

• Bring quinoa and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to low and simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Let the quinoa cool, then add the tomatoes and arugula and toss to combine.
• In a small bowl, mix yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and salt. Add the yogurt mixture to the quinoa salad and toss to combine.
• To serve, place a small (4 oz.) piece of salmon on top of some salad. (Salmon can be served hot or cold over a salad.)
