Notes

Feel free to customize this salad by adding ingredients like avocado, hard-boiled eggs, olives, or feta cheese for more flavor and texture. If using frozen salmon, make sure to thaw it properly before baking. For meal prep, store each component separately to prevent the salad from becoming soggy. Experiment with different dressings, like a creamy dill or sesame-ginger dressing!
