Salad is one of those all-encompassing food words that fit any lunch or dinner. Some, however, lift your spirit as well as fill you with superfood nutritious goodness. This Salmon, Apple and Wasabi Nut Salad does just that. 

I don’t know about you, but I go ‘nuts’ when I see Wasabi Nuts.
As I cannot buy them here, I get them online from Amazon.co.uk (or Amazon.com)— and use them sparingly and enjoy every nut with enormous glee. Wasabi Nuts are the perfect topping on this salad and add to the Asian touch. 

This recipe is surprisingly easy to make, with balanced flavors that come together in an Asian inspired dish that works as well as a first course, or the main meal. Adjust the quantities according to how many you serve, and switch out the Salmon if Chicken is more to your taste. A salad for one? Or impress your guests :).
