Blackened Salmon Salad with Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette
One of my favorite quick, easy meals for two! This blackened salmon salad with strawberry balsamic vinaigrette is bursting with springy and summery goodness. I used the air fryer to cook the salmon and made the dressing with real strawberries. I’m all about fruit in my salads right now – the savory sweet combo does it again.
Save this watermelon salsa for your next bbq or outdoor gathering. It is so refreshing and takes no time to throw together! I love creating recipes like this for the summer – light and easy and delicious on a hot day! It’s got all the best summer flavors: mint, watermelon, cucumber, lime, plus a little spice. I’m envisioning having this while relaxing by the pool with a good book and a cold drink, too.
If you need a super easy and healthy snack or appetizer, try this 5 Minute Avocado Feta Dip! I think everyone should make this delicious recipe this summer. It’s my go to because it takes about 5 minutes to throw together and is always delicious. The dip is very flavorful but made with all fresh ingredients.
