French Salmon Salad is for when you’re feeling fancy, but don’t want to put in a ton of work to make it happen. It’s the simplest way to elevate canned salmon. It tastes delicious, balances blood sugar, and is packed with body-loving nutrients.
Be Well Tip: Always choose wild-caught salmon over farmed salmon. The omega 3 content will be higher (brain-loving nutrition), and the likelihood of contamination with toxins is so much lower. I find my canned salmon (along with capers, Dijon, vinegar and olive oil from this recipe) at Thrive Market.
This French Salmon Salad is a complete Fab Four meal containing protein, fat, fiber and greens. This means it’ll balance your blood sugar, calm your hunger hormones, and leave you feeling full and energized for hours. That’s the magic of the Fab Four! No dieting or ditching huge food groups. Just leaning into the science of what works while enjoying food freedom.
Let’s take a look at how this recipe breaks down:
