Everyone should eat more fatty fish; it's high in omega-3 fatty acids and other healthy fats. Plus it tastes great! In the summer, grilled salmon is great, but salmon salads are my favorite. These top ten salmon salad recipes are all delicious and so easy to make. Salmon combines with fruits, vegetables, and pasta in flavorful dressings to make these easy recipes.

Try honey mustard salmon salad or my new favorite: curried salmon waldorf salad. As a bonus, each recipe makes a big bowl, so you can leave it in the fridge and just eat it until it's gone. Dinner made super easy!

    This glazed salmon salad recipe is delicious and quick. The fish is fried quickly with a sauce that adds a beautifully caramelized crust. It's then added to a salad of bean sprouts, mint, cilantro, lightly crushed peanuts, and mixed salad greens. Serve it with lime wedges for a bright finishing touch.
