Super Salmon Salad

To me this is the ultimate in feel-good food. I always see eating fresh seafood as a treat, and it calls my name much more than a burger and fries. This dish is so simple, but that really lets you taste the food. I find many salmon recipes often have some sort of sauce or topping, but sometimes its nice just to taste the fish.

This dish doesn't even have a proper dressing, just the juice from the grapefruit and some lime. It's one of those kind-of-recipes where there's not much cooking involved, and is more of an idea than a recipe.

It's bright, flavorful, full of healthy fats, and so darn tasty. There's something refreshing about eating food stripped down to it's bare bones. Try simplifying your food, you may be surprised just how delicious it can be.
