Smoked Salmon Salad with Dijon Lemon Dressing

This may be a summery salad but it was just too good to pass up this winter. This is my Smoked Salmon Salad with Dijon Lemon Dressing. Not only was it delicious, but it's a balanced meal and required little prep. To create this salad you need lettuce, quinoa, smoked salmon, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and radish. The dressing is a blend of Dijon mustard, lemon, olive oil, white wine vinegar, and salt. This salad is so refreshing and I highly recommend making it for a meal prepped lunch or enjoying it on a Saturday afternoon at home. I would like to mention that smoked salmon is high in sodium, so it's key that you take that into consideration if you've been told by a physician to limit your sodium intake. So grab your vegetables and smoked salmon and let's get to chopping.
