The Za’atar strikes back in this amazing grilled salmon salad with fresh farmers market vegetables! I taught this fantastic recipe in our Healthy On You® online cooking class today and we had so much fun cooking together. I am still in awe of everyone cooking away in their own kitchens. It’s hard enough cooking sometimes, but having to keep up with me, well, that can be challenging. You have to do some prep work ahead of time but it is soooo worth it. Seriously, though, this salad was great and didn’t require a ton of ingredients. Our Healthy On You While My Za’atar Gently Weeps spice blend rocked it in the dressing. And if you are vegan or vegetarian, swap out the salmon for tofu.

  • 2 cups baby arugula or other baby greens

Directions

  9. Turn the salmon after 5 minutes and cook for another 5 minutes on the grill-about 10 minutes total depending on thickness.
  10. Remove from the grill and flake into small chunks. Add the salmon to corn mixture and toss very gently just to coat with dressing.

Jamaican Jerk Grilled Salmon With Island Salsa

This recipe screams summer and we love a good summer recipe especially one that’s fresh and healthy! This salmon is true perfection. Our No Woman No Spice Jamaican Jerk spice blend is absolutely hands down a star in this one. It imparts the key island flavors we love: allspice, cinnamon, garlic, habanero (scotch bonnet) and much more blended just right to give that authentic flavor.

Savory Smoky Salmon on a bed of Leeks and Fennel

fish you were here youre so spain

Salmon is one of the easiest, healthy meals to prepare on a weeknight but sometimes we need to put a new spin on it. This week I made a delicious salmon with my Fish You Were Here and You’re So Spain spice blends. The spices added a nice smoky flavor and paired wonderfully with the tried and true favorite herby vegetable mix of leeks and fennel. The leeks and fennel help to cut the richness of the salmon and is a perfect compliment.
