This protein-packed superfood salad combines omega-rich trout, lentils, crispy veggies, and a creamy warming curry dressing to create a nutritious and elegant weeknight meal in a bowl. Salmon can be substituted for trout if desired.
Great white
Yogurt is a great choice as a base for creamy dressings. For this purpose, it’s best to use regular yogurt, which is thinner in consistency than Greek yogurt.
