Grilled Salmon with Avocado Greek Salsa and Orzo

My recipes are low carb paleo: fresh,healthy, whole food ingredients with very few starches, no sugars, no vegetable oils. The health of my spouse and myself has improved dramatically eating this way.

This salmon is unbelievably delicious and it’s actually so easy to prepare! Yes it may require a bit of chopping and I definitely recommend chopping everything itty bitty – to give it more of a salsa fresca type feel rather than a salad, but the extra bit of chopping is so worth it in the end!

And, we like to substitute cauliflower rice for the orzo to keep it low carb; and add 2 avocados rather than 1.

1 cup dry orzo

4 (6 oz) skinless salmon fillets

3 Tbsp olive oil, divided, plus more for brushing grill

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 small Roma tomatoes, diced (1 cup)

½ cucumber, peeled and chopped (1 cup)

⅓ cup chopped red onions

⅓ cup chopped kalamata olives

2 garlic cloves, minced (2 tsp)

1 medium avocado, peeled and diced

½ cup (2.5 oz) crumbled feta

2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

3 Tbsp finely minced fresh parsley

1 Tbsp finely minced fresh oregano
