Behind the Recipe
This is the kind of dinner I make when life is busy and I still want a balanced plate without starting from scratch. The salmon does most of the work, while a small portion of chicken rice, plenty of green beans, and a simple side salad make it feel like a complete meal. It is especially useful on sick days, travel days, or nights when cooking needs to stay easy.
Ingredients
- 5.5 ounces cooked Costco salmon
- 1/4 cup prepared Knorr Chicken Rice
- 1 cup cooked frozen green beans
- 2 cups salad greens
- 1 teaspoon homemade red-wine vinaigrette

40/400 Notes
- Use a kitchen scale to measure the salmon after cooking for the most consistent serving.
- Keep the rice portion to 1/4 cup so the meal stays close to the 40/400 target.
- The homemade vinaigrette is made with olive oil, red-wine vinegar, salt, black pepper, and granulated garlic.
- Nutrition is approximate and may vary with the exact salmon, rice preparation, and vinaigrette ratio used.
