Simple Dilled Salmon Salad

IMG_20150729_104020It’s week 6 of my 12 week series of The Summer of Salads. Featured is the Simple Dilled Salmon Salad. It was a very quick and easy recipe to make in under 30 minutes depending upon the thickness of your fillets. If you don’t like the taste of dill, you can eliminate it from your recipe. Slightly different taste, but still a great, light and healthy salad for lunch, picnics or as a party appetizer. Here’s the recipe. Enjoy!

  1. Thank you! And for even more of a shortcut you can use Picsweet Seasoning Blend for the onions and peppers! Already chopped! It’s in the frozen food aisle!
