Here's a healthy spin on convenience food — add four ingredients to your shopping basket, then head home to create a delicious family meal in a matter of minutes.

Preparation Time

Cooking Time

10 minutes

Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 4 (about 150g each) skinless salmon fillets

  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1/2 avocado, stone removed, peeled, finely chopped

Method

  1. Preheat a barbecue grill and flat plate on medium-high. Brush the salmon and asparagus with the oil. Season both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper.
