Since I am leaving for a business trip in Europe next week, I decided not to start until I am back from that. June 1st is the big day. Until then I decided to try out a few recipes that I found and so far I am loving them! This is the first I made and plan on making quite a few times during the month of June.
Thanks to The Roasted Root for this amazing and simple recipe: Grilled Salmon with Peach and Avocado Salsa! Their picture below is just so delicious looking (later on you'll get to see mine). I did modify the original recipe a bit because I don't have a grill, so mine is Baked Salmon with Peach and Avocado Salsa.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb salmon filet, cut into 3 or 4 portions
- 2 ripe but firm peaches, pitted and cut in half
- 1 avocado, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- sea salt to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven at 375
- Place the peaches cut side down on the greased pan and baked until soft, but not falling apart (about 10 minutes).
- Chop the peaches into bite size pieces and place in a bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients for the salsa to the bowl with the peaches and toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cut the salmon filet into serving size pieces, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
- Place the salmon on the grilling pan skin side down and bake until it is opaque and flaky (internal temp of 145, 10-15 minutes).
- Serve grilled salmon with peach avocado salsa.
Here is the final product served with asparagus and herbed cauliflower rice (another Whole30 recipe I tried and will be sharing!).
This seems like a great summer recipe now that the weather's getting better! Can't wait to read the cauliflower rice recipe - I heard about cauliflower rice the other day and thought it sounded really good.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious...another recipe to soon.
ReplyDeleteI love salmon and asparagus! This recipe is very creative. I will be trying it!
ReplyDeleteI did Whole30 over a year ago and it really does make you feel great but you have to get past the first week. I literally had dreams of chocolate cake. Afterwards I kept most of what I learned while on Whole30 but I don't go crazy anymore.
ReplyDeletegood luck with the diet
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! Never would have thought to add avocado and peach together.
