Ingredients

2 6 oz Salmon steaks
1 cup Lemon & Herb Dressing (recipe to follow)
1 Medium zucchini
1 Medium yellow squash
1 Carrot, scraped
1/2 Red pepper
1 tbsp Chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
2 cups Torn fresh spinach
2 cups Torn Bib lettuce
1 Tomato, cut into wedges
1 Small avocado, peeled and sliced
 Garnishes: Lemon twists, fresh parsley sprigs
 Lemon & Herb Dressing:

1 tsp Chopped fresh parsley
1/4 tsp Minced garlic
1 1/2 tbsp Sugar
3/4 tsp Paprika
3/4 tsp Dried basil
1/2 tsp Dried tarragon
1/2 tsp Seasoned salt

Preparation

Place salmon steaks in a shallow 1 qt dish; pour 1/4 cup dressing over steaks. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour, turning once.


Cut zucchini and next 3 ingredients into thin strips; combine with cilantro and 1/4 cup dressing, tossing gently. Set aside.


Remove steaks from marinade; place on lightly greased rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 inches from heat (with electric oven door partially opened) 5-6 minutes; turn and brush with marinade. Broil an additional 5-6 minutes or until fish flakes easily. Cool slightly.


Arrange salad greens and marinated vegetables on serving plates. Top with salmon steaks, tomato wedges, and avocado slices. Garnish, if desired, and serve with remaining dressing. Yield: 2 servings
