Ingredients
- 1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp EACH dried oregano, dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp EACH dried rosemary, garlic granules, sea salt, black pepper
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 3 6 oz salmon fillets
- 6 cups leafy greens
- 1 cup cucumber, sliced
- 2/3 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1/4 cup red onion, sliced
- 6 tbsp Feta Cucumber Dip
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- For serving: minced fresh herbs (basil, mint, and/or cilantro) and green onions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix the herbs and seasonings together in a small bowl. Place the fresh salmon on a baking sheet and pat dry with a paper towel, then brush ½ tbsp olive oil on the top of the salmon. Sprinkle half of the herb mixture on and press into the salmon. Set aside.
- On the other baking pan, add the chickpeas and red peppers. Pour the remaining oil and seasoning on the beans and diced peppers. Toss to combine and place in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, gently mix the chickpeas and peppers, and add the prepared salmon into the oven for baking. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. The chickpeas and bell pepper will be golden then too. Remove from the oven.
- Now assemble your healthy green power bowls! Into a large shallow bowl, add a bed of greens, roasted chickpeas, roasted red pepper, thin slices of cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, salmon, a generous serving of the Feta Cucumber Dip, feta, herbs and green onion. Enjoy!
