You cannot beat a one-dish recipe that is colorful, healthy and truly delicious and mostly, ready in only 7 quick minutes. Poached salmon with a tex-mex bean and corn salad is such a crowd pleasing combination there is no reason not to invite a crowd. Plus, it's no-cook so clean up is super easy. The zesty lime dressing permeates all the vegetables and beans adding a ton of flavor to every bite. If you don't want to poach the salmon at home, your fishmongers can quickly steam it so its cool and ready when you arrive home. Worried about the heat of the jalapeno? No need. Simply substitute some chopped green bell pepper in a batch you can label for kids and the heat averse.
