Pan-fried salmon with radish, avocado and pumpkin seed salad

Pan-fried salmon with radish, avocado and pumpkin seed salad
Serves: 1
PREP: 10 mins
COOK: 15 mins

Nutritional therapist Lowri Turner says: “This is a quick and easy, but incredibly nutritious midweek supper. Salmon, avocado and pumpkin seeds are all packed full of healthy omega 3 fats which are great for your heart, skin and brain. The crisp, pepperiness of the radishes are a great contrast to silky texture of the salmon and avocado. Plus, if you use a good non-stick pan and a spray oil, you keep the unhealthy saturated fat down and the salmon stays succulent.”
