INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the salmon. Preheat oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, dried basil and oregano. Top with the lemon slices. Roast at 400 for 15 minutes.
- Prepare the Vinaigrette. Place the vinaigrette ingredients in a small mason jar or bowl and whisk to combine.
- Prepare the rice bowl. If your rice and roasted tomatoes are cold, heat them in a microwave for 1 minute.* Place the rice, tomatoes, parsley, dill, green onion, olives and artichokes in a serving bowl. Mix together. Top with pumpkin seeds and hemp seeds. After the salmon is done roasting, remove the lemon slices and place the salmon on top of the rice mixture. Drizzle with desired amount of vinaigrette.
NOTES
*you can serve the rice mixture warm, hot or cold. I prefer mine room temp. The choice is yours.
