Wild Alaskan Salmon with Spinach, Tomatoes & Feta
This is a healthy, flavorful and light dish that leaves you feeling satisfied after the meal. It’s an elegant and quick to prepare dinner. We try to include salmon in our diet at least 1-2 times a week. This is just one of the ways we prepare it.
These beautiful salmon fillets comes in a package of six individually wrapped and marinated Wild Alaskan Salmons from Morey’s, purchased at Costco (Kosher certified and Gluten free). Place it in the oven either thawed or frozen and from about 15-25 minutes your fillets are ready to serve with rice, pasta or on a bed of spinach, as I have suggested here.
A dinner like this was never easier! Pair it with a glass of Pinot Noir.
Serves 2
2 Salmon fillets
2 cups fresh Spinach leaves, cleaned
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced
4 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
Light Vinaigrette OR lemon juice, to drizzle on spinach
Salt and pepper, to taste
Prepare your marinated salmon fillets, either using the suggested fillets from Morey’s (purchased at Costco) or using other sourced salmon fillets, marinated in complimentary season.
Arrange 1 cup of the spinach leaves on each dinner-sized plate. Place Roma tomato slices on top of the bed of spinach. Crumble 2 tablespoons feta on each plate, sprinkling the feta evenly around the plate and on top of the tomatoes and spinach. Drizzle with a light vinaigrette or lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Place one salmon fillet on top of the bed of spinach, tomatoes & cheese arrangement.
Serve immediately.

I am going to try this, it looks delicious! Love the red and green for the holidays.
I have really enjoyed view the site and can’t wait to try this recipe. I too LOVE this salmon. Found it at Costco and always keep these in my freezer for a quick dinner. In the summer, we grill the salmon outside and i serve it over a bed of mixed greens. I put diced mango around the edges of the bowl of greens, the salmon in the center and serve it with a dressing of equal parts honey and balsamic vinegar. Very easy and tasty.
Thank you for posting all the wonderful recipes and the photography is amazing.
So glad i found your site!
Hi Cindy: Thx for your feedback. I’m with you about always having some of these salmon filets in the freezer. It sure is a good meal and so versatile.
Using mango with it and your honey/balsamic vinegar sounds like a fantastic flavor combination!
Such a beautiful photograph. I want to make this, you’ve done an awesome job on presentation too!
Take care,
Jessica
Thank you, Jessica – it’s a great dish that’s quick, easy and very flavorful. Serving it on a bed of fresh spinach makes it even that more healthful and pretty too! :)
Beautiful dish! I struggle with fish and salmon in particular. Just don’t love fish. I will have to try your recipe and maybe it will change my mind! :)
Hi Gwen: I hope you’ll change your mind about salmon and give it a try. It’s so good for you and versatile. :)
This would be a good salmon to try if you can find it. It is already marinated and no fishy taste!
What a beautiful presentation!! that salmon looks perfect! and the feta, why didn’t I think of that!!!
I just did a salmon dish on my blog, I guess great minds think alike!

So healthy, so beautiful and so delicious!
@ Viviane – Taste-Buds: Thanks Viviane. I admit, I’m a bit of a feta fiend. :)
@ Emily – Cleanliness: You’re a fan of Morey’s Salmon already! It’s good stuff.
@ Georgia – The Comfort of Cooking: Georgia, your suggestion of mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach and parmesan sounds soooo good. I would enjoy that combination of ingredients too.
@ Roti n Rice: Thanks Biren. Very simple, but flavorful and good for ya! =)
So simple yet so satisfying! This makes a delicious meal!
Wow, this looks wonderful! I like to top salmon with something very similar – mushrooms, grape tomatoes and spinach sauteed in butter and topped with Parmesan cheese. This is a less-heavy, gorgeous summer recipe though – Great job!
Gorgeous! Simple! And I have 100% of the ingredients at home already! Think this will be a dinner this weekend.
Thanks so much for sharing!
This looks delicious, feta seems like a nice and interesting addition.
