Restaurant-Quality Dining at Home: Grilled Salmon with Tomato Salsa and Buddha Bowl

0

This Grilled Salmon with Tomato Salsa is a healthy and satisfying meal that you can prepare and enjoy in the comfort of your home.

My family loves salmon, and it only requires minimal prep work.

During the COVID times, we missed dining out. So, I decided to put in some effort to present our meals with restaurant-quality flair. Surprisingly, the same food took on a whole new dimension with improved presentation.

One of our discoveries during COVID-19 was Buddha bowls. I appreciate how you can create a balanced bowl with your choice of protein, carbs, and veggies.

Salsa offers an easy way to incorporate salad into your meals. I like to switch out tomatoes for mango, avocado, carrots, and corn to add variety in taste and flavor.

Additionally, salmon is a healthy option that requires minimal preparation time.
