Salmon Sushi Salad
Your invited to a dinner or have company coming and your pressed for time…what to do? You could stop by the deli or get a take out pizza, but this salad will be the hit of the party. It’s healthy, beautiful, fresh, crunchy and savory all in one bite.
I originally took a very large beautiful bowl of Sushi Salad to a ladies night out…it was the first dish to disappear, and I didn’t get any! What was left? A counter of foods I don’t eat. So I advise portion some out for yourself before putting it out.
Healthy Fast Food for that special event…here’s the plan….
Grab a beautiful serving bowl and a set of tongs before you leave home. Stop by the grocery and pick up the already prepared ingredients. If you have time, make the salad dressing at home.
If not, your grocery store will likely have an organic orange ginger vinaigrette Annie’s Organics has a great sesame ginger vinaigrette.

If you purchase a dressing you can add some orange juice for an extra kick of flavor.
Make your own Orange Ginger Vinaigrette.

You can find ALL these in the produce and deli sections at your at most local grocery chains…well except possibly Pigglywiggly, lol.
Add some crunch with a batch of Crunchy Quinoa to drizzle on top or even just a package of roasted pepitas.
Add a Sushi Flavor, pick up some Nori chips or wraps, break them up and toss with the salad. Anni Chunn has a tasty rice cracker Nori Chip.
