Salmon Citrus Salad

A lunch we all dream about, this Salmon Citrus Salad takes minutes to throw together!

To keep things simple, I do a bit of prep for this salad. Such as washing and drying the greens and blueberries or shredding the carrots. Thinly shaving the fennel and slicing the oranges also makes things easy. The biggest timesaver is roasting the salmon. I simply season several 3 to 4 oz salmon filets with salt & pepper. Each filet gets a slice or two of lemon and a few slices of onion on top. Then I roast them for about 15 minutes at 400 F. They turn out super easy and flavorful this way. Perfect for salads and easy dinners!
