A perfectly healthy, satisfying salad!
Salad was never my go-to choice for a meal. But once I learned how to make salads taste good, I was all about them! This is one of those amazing salads! This rainbow salad is not only tasty for your tastebuds, it is visibly delicious for your eyes. The vegetables in this salad are bright and vibrant. Corn, radish, tomatoes, carrots, avocado, cucumber, scallions, and a pop of orange from sockeye salmon. This crunchy salad is paired with the perfect homemade honey dijon salad dressing.
A simple & delicious 5 second salad dressing!
This is one of my favorite recipes! All you need is a little jar with a lid. Add your oil, vinegar, some seasonings, honey & mustard, shake to emulsify. Store bought dressing has so many added chemicals – have you ever actually looked at the label? Take my advice here, make your own! It’s way better for you, and cheaper!

Method
Make the 5 Second Salad Dressing
-
- In a jar with a tight fitting lid, add all salad dressing ingredients. Shake vigorously, until smooth and velvety and combined.
Make the Salmon
-
- Season flesh side of salmon with garlic & onion powder. Let salmon sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before going on to the next step. This will help the salmon cook more evenly.
- Heat cast iron pan over medium heat, add avocado oil. When pan is hot, add salmon, skin side down.
- Cook 3 minutes
- Cover, reduce heat to low and cook 3 more minutes.
- Let salmon cool slightly before adding to the salad.
Note
Sockeye salmon filets are very thin, just under 1/2 inch thick. If you are using another type of salmon, such as more commonly found Atlantic salmon, this is thicker, sometimes over 1 inch thick. This cut of salmon is larger, therefore will take longer to cook. A thicker piece of salmon will take 5+ minutes per side. Note, salmon that is taken directly from the refrigerator will take even longer to cook!
