Today's Ingredients If you're looking for something light and fresh to round off the holiday weekend, this grilled salmon salad nicoise is a solid contender. It's usually made with tuna, but salmon lends a meaty heartiness while the veggies provide a medley of flavors and textures. Also featuring lemon, olives, green beans, and potatoes, it's a deeply nutritious and refreshing meal. And though they're not in the original recipe, I suggest adding a spoonful of nutrient-packed capers. You wouldn't eat a nicoise beside the Med without them. Let's get to know the ingredients first!   • Which is healthier — wild or farmed salmon?   • Are olives really a kind of fruit?   • Yes, potatoes are full of carbs, but don't let that stop you Bon appétit, Tim Snaith Newsletter Editor, Healthline   Written by Tim Snaith November 26, 2023 • 2.5 min read Recipe of the Week Salmon steals the show in this nutritious nicoise salad The broiled salmon fillet really elevates the traditional salad nicoise mixture with its rich, fatty flavor. Plus, you can't beat its stellar nutritional profile. Salmon packs anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, metabolism- and bone-boosting vitamin D, and brain-supporting B vitamins. With the additions of vitamin C-rich lemon, antioxidant olives, filling potatoes, hearty green beans, and hard-boiled egg for extra protein, this salad is an all-around nutrition superstar. The contrasting flavors and textures take this salad to the next level. Tender grilled salmon contrasts with creamy potatoes (keep the skins on just to feel them pop), crisp beans, and juicy tomatoes. Tart lemon dressing provides citrus notes while those olives lend a salty, robust flavor. And don't skip the capers if you can help it — research shows that on top of their unique briny flavor, they may support healthy blood sugar levels. Grill up this salmon salad nicoise for a delicious, well-rounded meal, hearty and bright enough for everything from date night dinners to bring-along potlucks. Get the recipe!
