Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper. This will be your glaze for the salmon.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking tray and brush generously with the honey mustard glaze. Reserve some glaze for later use.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Meanwhile, add the quinoa and vegetable broth to a pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.
- In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the trimmed green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
- Once the quinoa is done, fluff it with a fork and stir in the green beans and cherry tomatoes. Pour a tablespoon of the reserved glaze over the mixture for added flavor.
- Serve the quinoa and vegetable mixture on plates, top with the baked salmon, and garnish with chopped dill. Add a spoonful of Greek yogurt on the side for a creamy contrast.
