Like most salads, this salmon spinach salad comes together very quickly, which makes it a perfect salad for weeknight dinners.
Guess what? if you don’t have smoked salmon, you can use grilled or baked salmon as well. I’ve actually had this smoked salmon salad without any salmon, and it still tasted so delicious. I’m telling you, the dressing is the star of the salad.
