Romesco Salmon Bowl with Eggplant & Cauliflower
Updated: Sep 12

The salmon bowl of your dreams. Yes, I might say that every time I make a new salmon bowl, but it just keeps getting better and better. The Romesco sauce on the salmon, the baked garlic flavored cauliflower and eggplant, the fresh arugula, the perfectly cooked basmati rice, and the Greek olives all came together so well to make this healthy omega 3 fat based dinner bowl!
Fun fact, Americans tend to not get enough omega 3 fatty acids in their diet, like they do in the Mediterranean, and that is something I'm going to continue emphasizing as long as I can. The Mediterranean diet emphasizes on lean meat, fish, and plant based foods instead of high in cholesterol red meat and pork.
So, if you want a heart healthy meal that is also delicious, macro friendly, and nutritious, let's get to the recipe!
