Is Salmon Salad Good for Weight Loss?

If you frequently consume salmon, it can help you lose weight and keep it off. Like other high-protein foods, salmon helps regulate the hormones that control appetite and help you feel full. Therefore, you won’t feel the need to eat more.
However, keep in mind that, according to FDA, salmon, catfish, tilapia, lobster, and scallops, are safe to eat two to three times a week, or 8 to 12 ounces per week.

How Long Do I Cook the Salmon?

Salmon will take 20 to 25 minutes in an oven at 350 F. However, you can also cook it on the stovetop, in an air fryer, or on a grill, which will take less time Keep in mind that perfectly cooked salmon should be juicy and easy to flake with a fork once it is cooked.

What Goes Well with Salmon?

  • PASTA SALAD WITHOUT MAYO: This easy pasta salad without mayo can easily be made into a vegan pasta salad with the right pasta and eliminating the feta. It’s great for barbecues and potlucks since it doesn’t contain mayonnaise, so you don’t have to worry about it sitting out for a couple of hours. I also love it leftover for lunch during the week, and again, it’s safe to pack in lunch boxes even if it won’t be refrigerated for a few hours.

Do You Put Eggs in the Salmon Salad?

If you want to use eggs in your salmon salad, it’s best to use a lemon dressing in order to balance the heaviness of the dish. So, here is a version of the salmon salad that adds eggs:

In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, paprika, lemon juice, and lemon zest. This will be the dressing. To a separate bowl, add salmon pieces (drained canned salmon), boiled eggs, cucumbers, green onions, and dill. You should avoid adding cheese, as this recipe is heavy enough already.
