Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

4 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

6 cups mixed salad greens (spinach, arugula, and romaine)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cucumber, sliced

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1 avocado, diced

1/4 cup walnuts, chopped (toasted if desired)

Fresh dill or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper to create a smooth glaze.

      Glaze the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on a lined baking tray. Brush the honey mustard glaze generously over the top of each fillet, ensuring they are well coated.

        Bake the Salmon: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. (Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.)

          Prepare the Salad: While the salmon is baking, assemble the salad. In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and avocado. Toss gently to mix the ingredients.

            Dress the Salad: Drizzle a light dressing of olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the salad (optional) and toss again to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

              Plate the Salad: Once the salmon is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Divide the salad among four plates and place a salmon fillet on each serving.

                Garnish and Serve: Top with chopped walnuts and sprinkle with fresh dill or parsley if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your Honey Mustard Glazed Salmon Salad!
