Salmon Fillet With Grapefruit And Avocado Salad

Ingredients:

2 medium sized salmon fillets
1/2 ripe avocado, peeled and diced
1/2 pink grapefruit, peeled and diced
1 pack of salad leaves mix, preferably including wild rocket
Handful walnuts
1 tbsp balsamic vinaigrette
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
salt&pepper
*

Another healthy, supposedly low calorie combination that can get a nice twist over the summer if the salmon fillet is barbecued. If you cannot grill the salmon outside, bake it in an oven for about 15 minutes at 180C, no additional fat needed, only season with salt and pepper. While the salmon fillet is being grilled or baked (or even fried on a saucepan if you prefer), prepare the salad by placing the salad leaves in a bowl or on a plate, add the peeled and diced grapefruit and avocado, sprinkle some walnuts over, season with balsamic vinaigrette, salt, pepper and dash of olive oil. Place the salmon fillet on top of the salad once ready and drizzle with lemon juice. If the salad is not enough, it can be served with fresh bread or as here with roasted potato wedges.
Bon Appetit!
