INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ea dried nori seaweed, cultivated, untoasted
  • 2 Tbsp dried sesame seeds, whole
  • 1 tsp tamari soy sauce
  • 0 1/4 tsp truvia, sweet completed granulated sweetener
  • 8 oz raw salmon
  • 0 1/3 ea fresh cucumber, with skin
  • 0 1/2 small fresh carrots
  • 0 1/2 cup fresh red bell pepper, sliced
  • 74 g fresh yellow bell pepper
  • 0 1/2 ea fresh avocado
  • 0 1/4 cup fresh scallions, tops & bulb
  • 2 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 Tbsp rice vinegar, 42 grain
  • 0 1/2 tsp fresh garlic
  • 0 1/2 tsp fresh ginger root
  • 2 cup fresh spring mix lettuce

DIRECTIONS

  1. Make the furikake. In a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, toast nori until aromatic, about 1 minute per side. Watch closely so it does not burn. Place in a medium bowl and set aside.
  2. In the skillet, heat sesame seeds over medium low stirring/shaking regularly until turning golden, about 5 minutes. Add Tamari and sweetener, stirring until well combined and all the sesame seeds are wet with tamari. Continue to cook over medium low, stirring occasionally, until sesame seeds are drying out, about 10 minutes. Scrape into the bowl with the nori, and mix until nori is broken into very small pieces and ingredients are evenly combined. Set furikake aside.
  3. Heat air fryer to 390°F.
  4. Slice salmon into 4, 2-ounce slices. Coat the top and sides of each salmon piece with the furikake, just less than 1 tablespoon for each piece. Place skin side down in the air fryer and cook 6 minutes, or until flaking with an internal temperature of 145°F.
  5. While the salmon is cooking, use a spiralizer to create cucumber noodles (about 1 cup or 100 g) and carrot noodles (about ½ cup or 25 g). Slice both bell peppers (½ cup of each), avocado, and scallions. 
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced or pressed garlic and grated fresh ginger.
  7. Assemble two bowls, each with 1 cup spring greens, ½ cup cucumber noodles, ¼ cup carrot noodles, ¼ cup red bell pepper slices, ¼ cup yellow bell pepper slices, ¼ of the avocado, and two pieces of cooked furikake salmon. Sprinkle each bowl with 2 tablespoons scallions, and half of the remaining furikake. Dress with half of the sesame oil dressing and serve. One bowl as described is one serving.
