Step:

  1. Take salmon out of fridge then preheat oven to 450F. Season salmon flesh side up with salt, spread mayonnaise evenly over the flesh, then squeeze lemon over the entire fillet.

  3. While salmon is roasting, assemble your salad. Add all ingredients but oil, toss, taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then add oil and toss again.

  6. I served ours with mashed potatoes, but it would go great with rice, quinoa, or couscous, among other things.

    Enjoy! :)

  6. For the topping:
  7. 2 ripe medium Roma tomatoes, diced
