Chickpeas and Cucumber Salad
For a little while now I have been playing around with the idea of going vegan or gluten free. Being a true hard core carnivore can be quite hard to make such a decision, so I slowly have been easing the family into that idea when I came across this salad recipe from shewearsmanyhats. I have always been a fan of salads so trying something new for salad was exciting. I love how refreshing this salad is. I made some teriyaki snapper fillets to go along with it. This definitely was a GREAT meal!

Salmon Salad Salmon Salad
So I made Vickys Lemon & Dill Salmon Skewers for dinner last night. They are delicious by the way and I highly recommend trying them!! I bought 4 salmon fillets, about 2 lbs and cut the cubes from the thick center portion of each fillet. This left the thinner edges of each fillet to do something with. So this morning I decided to make a quick salmon salad with the scrap salmon. I even had about 4 cubes of grilled salmon left over from last night that I added in to my flaked salmon. I used all my fresh dill last night so used dried dill weed in the salad, but fresh can certainly be used. Great use of leftovers.I'd add a link to Vicky's amazing recipe, but I don't know how!

Healthy Potato Salad with Avocado and Beans Healthy Potato Salad with Avocado and Beans
I love avocado and chick peas. I wanted to make a satisfying salad that I wouldn't get tired of. So, to make the most of the rich avocado flavor, I used sushi vinegar instead of mayonnaise. The green color is so pretty, and I'm really happy with the result. That's why I posted the recipe here - it's for my own reminder.Adjust the microwave time for cooking the potato (mine was 4 minutes at 600W). Peel the potato while hot, and add sushi vinegar immediately after mashing to season well. For 2 servings. Recipe by Usagi no Cima
