Salmon & Avocado Stuffed Lettuce Wraps

It’s the new year! Is one of your resolutions to be healthy? I’m excited to bring you fantastic healthy recipes that are not only delicious, but also easy! I don’t know about you, but time is something I always seem to be running short of and if I can save a little bit of hassle in the kitchen I am all over it! My Healthy Cashew Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps from last year are one of my most favorite recipes. I decided to give it a little twist and try salmon instead of chicken. I’m a huge seafood fan and anytime I can incorporate it into a lunch or dinner I’m all for it!

Salmon is one of the easiest fish to prepare. Normally, I would prefer to grill my filet, but since we are in the dead of winter I decided to oven bake it instead. I just placed my fish on a lightly greased sheet of aluminum foil, seasoned with salt and pepper, and baked at 450 for 12-15 minutes. The end result was beautiful! So moist and tender. Next to grilling, I’d definitely say that would be my second most favorite way to prepare salmon. I love the idea of the lettuce wrap because as much as I love me a good croissant – it’s sure nice to cut the carbs! Give this a try next time you’ve got some leftover salmon. It’s fantastic!
