Salmon Caesar Salad
This isn't your average Caesar—it's a full-on flavor experience with a healthy, protein-rich twist. Featuring flaky, golden-seared wild salmon, crisp romaine lettuce, and a creamy, tangy dressing made from real ingredients like lemon, garlic, anchovies, and Parmesan, this dish elevates the classic Caesar into something heartier and more nourishing. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch, a burst of umami, and a hit of healthy fats from both the salmon and the homemade dressing.
Whether you're after a power-packed lunch or a light yet satiating dinner, this salad strikes the perfect balance between indulgence and nutrition. Thanks to the addition of wild-caught salmon, this version is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, lean protein, and key micronutrients that support heart, brain, and skin health. Anchovies, garlic, and lemon give the dressing a sharp, savory depth, while crisp romaine provides the perfect fresh base for all that richness.
Easy to prep and impressive enough to serve guests, this Salmon Caesar Salad is a go-to recipe for when you want something quick, wholesome, and restaurant-worthy—without leaving your kitchen.
