Notes
- Best salmon: I buy wild smoked salmon. Look near the fresh meat and seafood counter at your grocer. You could also make Cedar plank salmon, which has delicious flavor!
- Microgreens: Are young vegetables or baby plants of many vegetables. Look for a bag in refrigerated produce section that says "microgreens".
- Use 1-2 large avocados. Mine are Costco size, which often means larger, so I used only 1.
- Store: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 12 hours.
- Make Ahead: Assemble salad without vinegar and oil. Refrigerate covered for up to 24 hours. Dress and toss before serving.
