SALMON AND QUINOA SALAD
A classic from Australia, is the Tassie Salmon. Not only it is seriously good, but it is also super healthy. Added with gluten free quinoa, and avocado, you can not do any better than that.
For a big salad for 4:
To prepare the quinoa start by washing it, then add to cold salted water and bring to boil. Reduce the heat, and cook in stimming water for 15 minutes. The quinoa will absorb the water. I match 2 times the quantity of water with the quinoa
Once cooked, drain and leave to cool down.
For the salmon, I poach it, starting in cold salted water as well, then bringing to stim as well. It will cook slowly and stay moist. 15 minutes will do the job.
In the meantime prepare the cucumber and avocado as on pictures. Same for salmon. Add to the quinoa, and add the lemon juice and olive oil dressing.
Place in the fridge to add more freshness!
Enjoy !
