Sometimes the hard part is not knowing what to eat. It is having to redesign every meal from scratch.
A salmon asparagus rice bowl works as a simple template: one protein, one vegetable, one carb, and seasoning that makes it enjoyable.
What you need
- One piece of salmon.
- Asparagus or broccoli.
- Rice, brown rice, or potatoes.
- Lemon, black pepper, and a small amount of olive oil.
How to make it
- Season salmon with black pepper and a little salt, then pan-sear or bake it.
- Blanch or quickly cook the asparagus.
- Add the carb base to a bowl, then add salmon and vegetables.
- Finish with a little lemon juice for a brighter flavor.
Easy swaps
- If you do not eat fish, use chicken, shrimp, tofu, or eggs.
- If you do not want rice, use potatoes, corn, or whole-grain bread.
- If you do not have asparagus, use any green vegetable you actually enjoy.
If you are allergic to fish, need to limit fat, or have specific medical nutrition advice, swap ingredients based on your own needs.
Which version would you try first: chicken, shrimp, tofu, or eggs?
