Whether you’re refueling post-practice or craving something clean and energizing, this salmon bowl hits the spot!
This easy salmon bowl is one of my go-to meals when I want something quick, healthy, and packed with flavor. Marinated in a savory-spicy mix and air-fried until crisp, the salmon is served over jasmine rice with fresh veggies and a creamy sriracha mayo drizzle. Loaded with high-quality protein from salmon and edamame, complex carbs from rice, and nutrient-rich vegetables, it’s a balanced, energizing option that’s ideal for athletes.
