Ayurvedic Benefits
Salmon builds tissue (especially for Vata/Kapha), supports energy, and restores ojas.
Red potatoes are grounding and gently sweet—good for Vata and Pitta when roasted with warming spices.
Brussels sprouts cleanse and detoxify the liver, support digestion, and add bitter balance—great for Kapha and Pitta, and energizing for Vata when cooked well.
Avocado softens and nourishes the heart and skin.
Tahini-lime dressing is creamy and bright—stimulating, calming, and satisfying for all doshas.
Ingredients
Ingredients
For the Bowl
1 wild-caught salmon fillet (4–6 oz), cooked
¾ cup cooked quinoa or basmati rice
½ cup roasted red potatoes (see below)
½–¾ cup roasted Brussels sprouts, halved
¼ cup shredded carrot or beet
½ ripe avocado, sliced
Pickled red onion or radish (just a few slices)
Fresh herbs or microgreens (cilantro, mint, or parsley)
Optional: toasted seeds for crunch (pumpkin or sesame)
Roasted Red Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts
1 cup red potatoes, quartered
1 heaping cup Brussels sprouts, halved
1½ tbsp olive oil or ghee
½ tsp cumin
¼ tsp turmeric
Pinch of sea salt
Optional: smoked paprika or rosemary
Creamy Tahini-Lime Dressing
2 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp maple syrup or raw honey
1 tbsp warm water (to thin)
½ tsp cumin or turmeric
Pinch of sea salt
Cooking the Salmon
Season your salmon with:
1 tsp olive oil
A sprinkle of cumin, garlic powder, black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt
Optional: a dash of smoked paprika or cayenne for extra warmth (best for Kapha or Vata)
Method:
Bake at 400°F for 12–15 minutes, or pan-sear gently with olive oil until just cooked and flaky. Don’t overdo it—salmon should feel moist and tender, not dry or aggressive.
Instructions
1. Roast the Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss red potatoes and Brussels sprouts in oil, cumin, turmeric, salt (plus paprika or rosemary if desired). Spread on a parchment-lined sheet. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway. They should be crispy at the edges, fork-tender in the center.
2. Cook the Salmon:
Season fillet with olive oil, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and a touch of pepper or paprika. Bake at 400°F for 12–15 minutes or pan-sear until just cooked through.
3. Make the Dressing:
Whisk together tahini, lime juice, maple or honey, warm water, salt, and spices until smooth and creamy.
4. Build Your Power Bowl:
In a wide bowl, layer quinoa, roasted veggies, and salmon. Add avocado slices, pickled onions, and shredded roots. Drizzle with dressing and finish with herbs and seeds.
Blissful Variations
Pitta: Use lime instead of lemon, go easy on the spice, and pile on the Brussels.
Vata: Serve warm with extra ghee or tahini, and be generous with avocado.
Kapha: Use half potatoes, double the sprouts, and add warming herbs like ginger or mustard seed to the dressing.
