3 Ingredient Avocado Stuffed Salsa Salmon
Inspired by an avocado stuffed teriyaki salmon dish I used to order every Sunday from a great restaurant around the corner from NYU. I riffed a bit since I didn't have teriyaki in the house - so salsa it is, and it is SO good. Serve with my favorite 3-Ingredient "Spanish" Oven Rice.
