  • Salmon can be prepared a day in advance, store in the fridge (preferably not layered or sauce will soak into salmon). Reheat in the microwave until heated through.

  • Slaw can be prepared a day ahead and sugar snap peas can be sliced ahead, just wait to add to heated bowl.

  • Yogurt sauce can be made a day prior.

Possible Variations:

  • Add rice: Brown or white rice, quinoa or farro would work well.

  • Coleslaw mix: Use a store-bought coleslaw mix to safe time.

  • Rice vinegar alternative: Apple cider vinegar is another great choice.
