There’s nothing like a summer salmon salad with fresh strawberries!
And this one is perfectly balanced for PCOS!
I love salads for helping you get in all of your nutrients when it’s too hot to cook! I included several main course salads in my new book, A Balanced Approach to PCOS. Because that’s the only thing I want to eat all summer!
This salad has plenty of protein and fat to make it a balanced meal. It clocks in at 32 grams of protein, 32 grams of healthy, anti-inflammatory fats, and 4 grams of fiber!
It’s blood-sugar balancing, packed with anti-inflammatory, Omega-3s and antioxidants. Which makes this summer salmon salad a winner for PCOS!
Plus, the sweetness of the balsamic glaze helps balance the tartness of the strawberries and greens!
Is it just me, or does adding fruit to a salad instantly uplevel it?
If you’re starting with pre-cooked salmon, you can have lunch on the table in under 5 minutes!
Summer salmon salad on a plate in a hurry! Now, that’s my kind of a meal!
