  • Baked salmon – 12 Oz
  • Fresh spinach – 18 Oz
  • Coarsely chopped cucumbers – 8 Oz
  • Chopped red onion – 2.5 Oz
  • Chopped lettuce – 1 cup
  • Steamed broccoli – 2 cups
  • Dressing – ¼ cup
  • Dressing Ingredients
  • Flax seeds – 1 tbsp.
  • White wine vinegar – 3 tbsps.
  • Olive oil – 2 tbsps.
  • Water – 1 tbsp.
  • Finely chopped shallots or scallions – 1 tbsp.
  • Dijon mustard – 2 tsps.
  • Chopped garlic – 1 clove

    Step 1
    Make a sauce. Preheat oven to 350F. Pour flax seeds into a small baking dish and roast for 10 minutes. Let the seeds cool.
    Step 2
    Put the roasted flax seeds into a coffee grinder and grind until the seeds turn into powder.
    Step 3
    In a small bowl, mix grinded flax seeds, garlic, shallots, lettuce, olive oil, vinegar, water, and mustard. You will get about half a cup of sauce.
    Step 4
    Steam broccoli. Pour about a quarter of an inch of water into a high-sided skillet and bring it to boil over medium heat. Then, add broccoli and cover the skillet with a lid. Let the broccoli steam up to 5 minutes, until it gets tender and remove the broccoli from the skillet.
    Step 5
    In a large bowl, mix pieces of baked salmon, broccoli, red onion, cucumbers, and spinach.
    Step 6
    Pour the dressing over the salad and mix everything together.
    Step 7
    Put the ready salad on a plate and serve.
