Make it step by step
- First, weigh every listed ingredient for the full two-serving batch in its exact starting preparation. Cooked grains, beans, vegetables, meat and fish are already cooked or drained as named; their initial cooking time is not included here.
- Next, wash and trim romaine lettuce (raw) and avocado (raw) before weighing the edible amount. Remove the stones or pits from the listed stone fruit, mango or avocado. Keep all weighed edible flesh in the recipe.
- Then, separate romaine lettuce (raw) into intact wrapper leaves and pat them dry. Chop smaller or torn edible leaves into the filling so their measured weight is not discarded.
- After that, stir the measured lemon juice (raw) together as the dressing or spread. This uses the entire measured amount once; keep it all with the finished food.
- Next, chop or flake atlantic salmon (farmed, cooked) and avocado (raw) into a spoonable filling and mix with the prepared dressing. Mash beans or avocado lightly when present to help the filling stay together.
- Then, distribute the filling across the measured leaves, fold or roll loosely, and include any loose filling with the servings.
- Finally, divide the complete batch equally into two servings by weight, including all measured toppings, sauce and oil. Serve promptly or follow the linked food-handling guidance for cooling, storage and reheating. Times are editorial estimates, not a record of physical kitchen testing.

Original added-fat equivalent (÷1.5): 14.43. This is a separate convention, not an extra fat allowance.
However, separate block counts do not mean this recipe is an exactly balanced Zone meal. The table shows total carbohydrate as well as carbohydrate minus fiber. In addition, we scale nutrients from USDA reference entries and sum them before rounding. These are estimates, not a laboratory analysis.
Source and preparation notes
Source-calculated starting-ingredient estimate, not laboratory analysis or physical kitchen testing. Cooked foods are weighed after cooking as named; raw vegetables, fruit and egg are weighed in their listed starting state. Cooking may change water and nutrient retention; no finished per100g concentration or cooking yield is claimed. Keep all measured oil/sauce with the batch. Total time includes stated chill/rest time, but excludes initial cooking of ingredients already named cooked. Product labels and substitutions require recalculation.
