Quinoa

Salmon Filets

• Omega-3s & high-quality protein: A lean protein source rich in heart-healthy fats that reduce inflammation, support brain function, and help build and repair muscle.

Honey

• Natural sweetness: A small amount of honey balances savory spices and adds antioxidants and trace minerals. It’s a smart way to satisfy sweet cravings without refined sugar.

Lemon Juice

• Bright flavor & vitamin C: Enhances flavor without calories and supports immune health, digestion, and skin vibrancy.

Paprika, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder

• Metabolism-boosting & flavorful: These spices bring depth and warmth to the salmon while offering potential metabolism-supporting benefits with minimal sodium.

Cucumber Salad:

Cucumber

• Hydrating & low-calorie: Full of water and fiber, cucumbers help keep you hydrated, aid digestion, and add a refreshing crunch.

Fresh Dill

• Anti-inflammatory & flavorful: Dill offers antioxidants and adds a fresh, tangy kick that pairs perfectly with fish and creamy sauces.

Creamy Lemon Dill Sauce:

Mayonnaise

• Healthy fats (when chosen wisely): Adds creaminess and satisfaction—opt for an avocado oil or olive oil–based mayo for better fat quality.

This bowl is all about balance: protein, fiber, flavor, and healthy fats—without sacrificing satisfaction.
