For the Black Bean-Corn Salsa:

One (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
¼ cup finely diced red onion
¼ cup finely diced cilantro
½ cup finely diced red bell pepper
1 cup frozen fire roasted corn, thawed
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
½ teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

For the Salmon:

Four [6-ounce] center cut salmon filets
1/3 cup store-bought no sugar Whole30 approved bbq sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

For Serving:

1 cup prepared brown rice (sub cauliflower rice or greens for Whole30)

Method

Preheat the oven to 400℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Make the Black Bean-Corn Salsa:

In a large bowl, add all of the Black Bean-Corn Salsa ingredients. Toss until well combined. Set aside.

Bake the Salmon:

Place the salmon filets on the prepared baking sheet and pat dry. Brush the tops of the salmon filets with the bbq sauce and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.

Assemble the Bowls:

Spoon the prepared rice (if using) in the bottom of each bowl. Add a salmon filet on top. Spoon the Black Bean-Corn Salsa on top and drizzle with SideDish Classic Ranch. Sprinkle with the cheese (if using) and top with jalapeño, if desired. Garnish with fresh cilantro and enjoy!
