Salmon & Roasted Vegetable Salad

Recipe Description

Looking for a hearty dinner salad for two? Enter this amazing Salmon & Roasted Vegetable Salad recipe! It’s a mix of root veggies roasted until deliciously caramelized, tossed with salmon and scallions, and served over the mixed salad greens, then drizzled with anchovy mustard vinaigrette. It’s such a great combination of flavors and makes for an easy, flavorful dinner salad fancy enough for the weekend! Perfect! 

For the veggies, I use a combination of potatoes, turnips, carrots, and beets. The first step is to roast the veggies. About halfway through cooking, stir and continue roasting until soft and deliciously golden brown in spots. Meanwhile, prepare the anchovy mustard vinaigrette. When the veggies are done cooking, toss them with salmon and scallions and drizzle with some of the anchovy mustard vinaigrette. Use the remaining vinaigrette as a salad dressing. Serve the veggies and salmon over the greens, and enjoy! The recipe yields 2 servings but can be easily doubled.  

To make the Salmon & Roasted Vegetable Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
