This salmon salad recipe is healthy for you in many ways. The Vital Choice brand salmon is wild-caught off the coast of Alaska and is third-party certified as mercury-free as possible. Go to the Safe Fish page to order it.
The mayonnaise used is Vegenaise brand GRAPESEED oil. Don't buy any other kind of oil based mayonnaise from this brand - they do sell several other kinds. The cap and label on the grapeseed brand are both purple.
Grapeseed oil is chock-full of anti-oxidants from the resveratrol that is found in grape seeds and skins. It is egg free, dairy free and preservative free and can be found at Whole Foods and Natural Foods Warehouse.
This is a recipe for two days worth of salad so put the second serving in a lidded container to take with you on the road to work or school or to eat the next day at home. You'll be glad you did.
