• 1 1/4 cups canned coconut milk
• 1 1/2 cups jasmine rice, rinsed well and drained well
• 1/2 tsp salt

Avocado-Mango Salsa

• 1 large mango, peeled and diced
• 3/4 cup chopped red bell pepper (1/2 large)
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/3 cup chopped red onion, rinsed under water and drained
• 1 large avocado, peeled and diced
• 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice

Grilled Salmon Ingredients

• Salmon fillets – the main ingredient. Rich in protein and nutrients!
• Olive oil – keeps the exterior for drying and sticking.
• Lime – adds so much bright flavor.
• Garlic – adds another layer of flavor.

Mango Avocado Salsa Ingredients

• Mango – adds fresh natural sweetness.
• Red bell pepper – adds more texture and color.
• Red onion – a little goes a long way here. Rinse it so it’s not so harsh first.
• Avocado – adds a delicious creaminess.
• Cilantro and lime – adds classic Mexican flavors to the salsa
• Olive oil and coconut water – this isn’t a must here but I like that bit of richness and moisture it adds.

Coconut Rice Ingredients

• Coconut Water – it adds flavor to the rice.
• Canned coconut milk – don’t confuse this with coconut milk beverage. The canned stuff is much creamier and richer.
• Jasmine rice – stick with jasmine, it has more flavor than plain long grain white rice.
