My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.
As most bears can attest to, salmon is arguably the tastiest fish out there. We have nothing against tuna or sardines but there’s something uniquely satisfying about eating freshly smoked salmon while curling up and watching a good movie on Netflix.
If you’ve been looking for a dish that will keep you energized throughout the entire day, nourish your body, and satisfy those taste buds then you’ve come to the right place The first ingredient you’ll need to acquire is three ounces of wild smoked salmon
If you want to cook more than one bowl in a single session then feel free to get more salmon. After all, you can never have too much salmon in your life. Next, get one soft-boiled egg along with a serving of brown rice with edamame. Take note that you can boil for longer than eight minutes if you don’t want the yolk of your egg to be soft.
Slice a quarter from a medium ripe avocado once your egg is done boiling and has been dropped in ice water to stop it from cooking further. For garnish, you’ll want lime, either fresh green onion or cilantro, and an optional teaspoon of sesame seeds.
Add all of your ingredients into a sturdy bowl then mix it thoroughly until all the scrumptious components have meshed together. Feel free to add one of your favorite sauces like oyster sauce, soy sauce, or kewpie mayo.
You can even adapt this recipe into a smoked salmon sushi bowl by adding sashimi on the side. Sushi bowls are a great way to diversify your diet with healthy and tasty proteins. However you prepare it, this dish is sure to fill you up in the tastiest way possible.
That’s all for now, fit foodies!
