Smoked Salmon and Asparagus Salad


This is one of my favorite salads. It has all my the ingredients I love and its easy to make. This recipe makes one large salad.

Ingredients

  • 1serving or 1/2 pack of lox (smoked salmon)
  • 1 bunch of asparagus
  • 1 hard boiled egg
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1 oz of goat cheese
  • 1 cup of arugula
  • 1 cup of spinach
  • 1 tbsp. of olive oil
Instructions

  1. Boil 1 egg until hard. 
  2. Cut off ends of asparagus and cook in some water in a small pan. Cook until desire texture is achieved.
  3. Once egg and asparagus are cooked, allow them to cool. You can place them in some ice and dry them when cooled.
  4. Wash and dry greens and place at the base of the plate or bowl.
  5. Cut up avocado and place on top of the greens
  6. Add asparagus
  7. Peel hard boiled egg and grate. I use the large grating option of a cheese grater.
  8. Add the egg to the salad. 
  9. Place pieces of lox on top of the mix and sprinkle with goat cheese and olive oil. 
You may add salt if you feel it is necessary. I personally feel the lox adds enough saltiness. Feel free to switch up the cheese or greens. Sunflower sprouts also make a great addition.
