Emily Mariko’s Salmon Bowls
Hello friends!!!
I wanted to share with you a staple meal that I make way too much. If you know me you know I love salmon. Now I know what you’re thinking, “Salmon is so expensive.” Yes, salmon can be expensive if you buy it at whole foods or elsewhere. I am a proud Aldi shopper!! I buy huge fillets which usually cost me $20. I cut it up and stored it in the freezer for later. Just a little Justice hack for you. Anyways I want to share my favorite salmon bowl, and my mouth is watering as we speak!! Emily makes her bowls with rice, but if you are trying to be conscious of your grains you can always use cauliflower rice instead.
Ingredients
- Salmon
- Rice
- Veggies (I use the frozen bag mix with green beans, carrots and whatever veggies you want)
- Honey
- Garlic
- Packet of seaweed
Sauce
Now I make two different sauces. One is how Emily makes it. (With mayo) Or you can make it with Greek yogurt, your choice!
Mayo sauce
- 1 Tablespoon of sriracha
- 2 Tablespoons of mayo
- 1 teaspoon of garlic
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (optional)
- 1 tablespoon of water
Greek yogurt sauce
- 3 tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon of sriracha
- 1 teaspoon of garlic
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (optional)
- 1 tablespoon of water
Directions Oven
- Add your honey and garlic and apply on top of your salmon
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and cook your salmon for 8-10 minutes (depending on how thick your salmon is)
- While the salmon is being cooked make your rice and sauteed veggies
Directions Air Fryer
- Add your honey and garlic and apply on top of your salmon
- Air Fry your salmon for 7 minutes at 400 degrees
- While the salmon is being cooked make your rice and sauteed veggies
Sauce
- Mix all your ingredients in a small little bowl. You need to make sure you add a small amount of water to this sauce, or else the sauce will be too thick.
Add ons
- Avocado
- sesame seeds
- Soy Sauce
Once all your food is cooked and prepared you can add everything to a bowl, mix it up or make it look pretty however you would like to eat it. The best part of the meal is adding the small seaweed bites. I was disgusted by this before I tried it, but trust me it is a game-changer. It tastes just like sushi but better. You can buy the little seaweed packets at Kroger or public and they are $1.00 a pack. Enjoy!!! Let me know if you love this recipe.
