Spicy Salmon Rice Bowls
Perfect for lunch, this recipe is great for using up leftover cooked salmon from the night before. Let the flaked fish marinate in the spicy sauce until mealtime nears. And given that only the rice requires reheating, you won’t have to worry about the fishy smell bothering your colleagues near the microwave station.
