SALMON SALAD | if you like my tuna salad recipe, you’ll LOVE this salmon salad recipe!



This salmon salad has it all – flaky baked salmon, crisp celery, red onion, radishes, and fresh herbs, tossed in a creamy lemony dressing. Oh yes, this is how you give salmon a fresh new lift.

I’m a huge proponent of turning simple proteins into creamy summer salads. They’re deliciously filling, yet still light and fresh. At this point, I’ve made shrimp salad, chicken salad, tuna salad (even broccoli tuna salad)…you get the gist. So it only made sense that next on my list was a salad that leveraged one of my favorite ingredients – baked salmon!

This healthy salad makes for the perfect summer salad, light lunch, or fresh dinner recipe. I can’t wait to hear what you think of it!

    So tell me… which is your favorite simple protein salad? Salmon salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, or shrimp salad?? 🙂 xo – Lisa

    Hi, been here since your testimony and you making your juices, but I don't think I ever saw you make cinnamon rolls, is it possible they is a recipe you know that you can share that makes healthy alternative cinnamon rolls?, Keep up the great awesome work.

  3. Keto Meals and Recipes

    I absolutely💖 your channel and this recipe!, you are an inspiration for me I have been making tuna and salmon salad for school and work lunches for years, but never added fresh radish. What a great way to liven up the taste profile! I will have to try your version next time I make salmon salad. Thank you for sharing. HAve a great day. Cheers

    Just really enjoy your videos thank so much. Just started watching. Always looking for new ways on salads.

  6. Valree Bullock

    I wonder how much you can taste the mustard in this. I’ve never cared for mustard but sometimes in sauces or dressings I know it’s in there but it doesn’t have a strong taste.

    Trying to decide if I am simply going to pass on the celery or sub something else. Ideas? I am not a fan of the texture or taste of celery. Everything else looks awesome.

  12. Krow884

    Looks great, however kinda question salting the salmon. Wild caught salmon is naturally salty on its own.

  14. Lisa Kocks

    Just made the salmon salad, but subbed out the mayonnaise for non-fat greek yogurt and it tastes amazing. Trying to eat super-clean with minimal ingredients like you and loving it. Can't wait to get my hands on your cookbook 🙂

  19. Viktoria Havas

    Looks delicious! Will definitely try it. And yes, purple onions! In Hungary that's exactly how they're called, actually 🙂

  21. Lilla

    In Hungarian we call red onion 'lila hagyma ' which actually means purple onion 😅

    Thanks to Dr Alaho Olu on YouTube who cured me and my wife from Herpes, he also have cure for HPV, FIBROID, CANCER, LUNGS DISEASE, COLDSORES…..

  26. Rachel Henton

    Finally made this salmon salad today and it was amazing. The lemon and smoked paprika took it to another level!

  27. Clara Cadatal

    I love your channel, just pre-ordered your book. I just found the channel today so I still have to try some of your recipes, but I am sure I will love them.

  29. Debbie Wallace

    I can see why she has 2m followers. I like everything here. The video. The printable. The nutrition at the bottom. I would love to add to My Fitness Pal app but I know it is too much to ask. You got a subscriber

  30. Events Person

    I just made this and it's insanely tasty! We already have your air fryer salmon twice a week, now I can add this to get even more salmon in our diet. Thanks, Lisa and very best of luck with the cookbook sales. Mary

  31. Alicia Abraham

    I made this salad and it is absolutely delicious. Fool proof! If you like salmon I recommend this recipe. I’m planning on adding shrimp 🍤 next time!

  37. Ahna Ahna

    I always watch and utilize many of ur recipes! I probably will use canned salmon…..but I will use the best and gently flake it. I grew up on canned salmon with bones. The bones are nutritious in the canned version! So I am just sharing……but I fully enjoy your YouTube recipes! Thank you for your thoughtful YouTube….site!! Truly grateful. Ahna

  38. Ahna Ahna

    I cannot afford fresh salmon at 12 dollars per pound….but I joyfully can utilize ur ideas in the recipe!!! Thks. Ahna

  41. IrieGirl

    Omg I'm getting everything to make this! This looks amazing. 👌
    I'm planning on having mine with Tostadas or chips

  48. Bombidil

    They use a really nice salmon filet in the video, but the nice part about this is you can use the cheap frozen tail cuts for this.

  49. Susan Hennessy

    I served this for lunch to 2 friends who are excellent cooks. It was a huge hit. The recipe will become my go-to for when I want to impress anyone!
