Sweet Kale Salmon Salad
Back to Blog List

Great easy meal from Costco Magazine.  Being a Costco recipe the package of Eat Smart Sweet Kale salad Kit you buy at Costco is twice the size that is available in the regular grocery stores. 

Ingredients:

1 (28 oz.)package Eat Smart Sweet Kale Salad Kit

12 oz. fresh salmon, cut into 4 (# oz) fillets (I have packaged frozen from Costco.)

1 t garlic powder

1 lemon, thinly sliced

1/2 t salt

1/4 t pepper

1/4 C EVOO

2 T apple cider vinegar

3/4 C grape tomatoes, halved (I cut up the container and added.)

1 ripe but firm avocado, diced

2 T crumbled goat cheese

Directions:

  1. Preheat broiler and position oven rack in top slot
  2. Remove 1 dressing packet from salad kit.  Place salmon fillets on a baking sheet and spread with dressing.  
  3. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Place 2 lemon slices on each fillet.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Broil salmon until desired doneness.  (We did 8 minutes.) Done is 145 degrees F.  
  5. In a small bowl, whisk remaining packet of dressing with EVOO and vinegar.  Place salad greens in large bowl, Add dressing and cranberry/pumpkin seeds, and toss well. 
  6. Stir in tomatoes and avocado.
  7. Divide salad among 4 dinner plates, and top with salmon fillets.  
  8. Sprinkle with goat cheese.
  9. Makes 4 servings.  

I added the goat cheese to the salad.  I would serve this to company.  It was really good and I thought filling.  Jim ate 2 servings and we have leftover salad.  This will go with the leftover bean soup Salt or Sunday.  We have a lot going on, so don’t expect any real cooking until Thanksgiving starts.
