Protein-Packed Salmon & Quinoa Bowl

Healthy Salmon Bowl with Quinoa, Broccoli, Eggs, and Cherry Tomatoes

Ingredients:

  • 1 salmon fillet
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (steamed or blanched)
  • 2 boiled eggs (halved)
  • A handful of cherry tomatoes (roasted or grilled)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: lemon juice or herbs for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Quinoa:
    Rinse quinoa and cook it according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork and season with a pinch of salt.
  2. Prepare the Salmon:
    Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the salmon for about 4–5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.
  3. Boil the Eggs:
    Boil the eggs to your desired doneness. For a soft center, boil for about 7–8 minutes. Peel and cut in halves.
  4. Roast the Tomatoes:
    Toss cherry tomatoes in a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 10–15 minutes or until soft and slightly blistered.
  5. Steam the Broccoli:
    Steam or blanch broccoli for 3–5 minutes until tender but still bright green.
  6. Assemble the Bowl:
    Place a portion of quinoa on a plate. Add the grilled salmon, steamed broccoli, roasted tomatoes, and halved boiled eggs. Drizzle with olive oil or a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
