Today I am sharing with you the recipe for a hearty warm salad: Warm Salmon and Potato Salad.
I am absolutely in love with this recipe and it has become one of my go-to recipes for a quick and satisfying lunch. This salad is naturally low fodmap, so it can be enjoyed also by people with IBS.
I have made it both with canned salmon and with smoked salmon chunks and, even though I like them both, I prefer the smoked salmon version. Try them both and let me know!
I think that potato, salmon, and rocket are a match made in heaven, as all the flavours come together and balance one another quite nicely.
The dressing is another winner. I really like this simple Dijon vinaigrette.
Enjoy and don’t forget to check out my video recipe and to leave a comment to let me know how you like it!
