Teriyaki Salmon Edamame Bowls
This is one of my newer additions to the seafood rotation, pairing salmon with edamame for a little extra protein alongside the usual broccoli and rice. It's built on the same teriyaki base as my chicken version, just with a different protein doing the work.
Salmon and edamame together give this bowl two sources of protein and healthy fats, which is part of why it keeps me full longer than a lot of my other seafood bowls. Teriyaki glaze ties the salmon and broccoli together with the same sweet-savory flavor.
Edamame adds a plant-based protein boost alongside the salmon, plus a pop of color and texture that broccoli alone doesn't give. This is one of my go-to bowls when I want something that feels lighter but still substantial.
The recipe card has the full ingredient list and bake time for all ten portions. Let the salmon cool before dividing everything into containers, then refrigerate what you'll eat within four days and freeze the rest. This teriyaki salmon and edamame bowl is one of my go-tos when I want something a little lighter but still filling.
