This composed salad is a game-changer, with its rich, omega-3-packed salmon, perfectly cooked and chilled to perfection. And let’s not forget the other stars of the show: the creamy whole-grain mustard vinaigrette, the tender green beans, the velvety artichokes, and the crispy potatoes.

So, how do you make this masterpiece? Start by cooking your potatoes and green beans until they’re tender. While they’re cooking, prepare your salmon by seasoning it with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Then, grill or bake it until it’s cooked through.

Once your potatoes and green beans are done, let them cool to room temperature. Then, slice your cooked salmon into thin pieces and set it aside.

Now it’s time to assemble the salad. Start by placing a bed of mixed greens on a large platter or individual plates. Arrange your sliced salmon, potatoes, green beans, and artichoke hearts on top of the greens.

Drizzle your whole-grain mustard vinaigrette over the top of the salad and sprinkle with chopped olives and a pinch of salt and pepper.

This salad is a real showstopper, and it’s sure to impress your friends and family. So go ahead, give it a try, and get ready to indulge in the most epic salad extravaganza of your life!
