  4. While salmon is cooking, place mixed greens in a bowl, top with cherry tomatoes and cucumber slices

  5. Remove potatoes from microwave and season with 1 tbsp of avocado oil, and 1 tsp of each: salt, pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary inside the bag. Give the bag a good shake to evenly coat each potato.

I love this Pan Fried Salmon and Red Potatoes recipe because it has all the nutrients you need to keep you full for hours! It combines healthy fats from the salmon (not to mention the omega-3s) and avocado oil, it has fiber from the veggies, and the salmon is a great source of protein. All together this meal is perfect for healthy living and only takes 15 minutes to whip together!
