Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowl! Leftover Teriyaki Salmon and short grain brown rice are combined with fresh mango, short grain brown rice, avocado, carrots and cucumber to transform leftovers to a fabulous dinner!
Fabulous leftovers become even more fabulous
I don’t know about you, but after the Holidays I’m tired. Weary. Worn out.
I’ve even had some health drama…which is a discussion for another time.
Me posing with my IV (I named him Fido). It’s always something. SO much drama!!!
So…when my awesome Social Media Guy, Adam, sent me a viral TikTok trending video I was immediately revved. In fact, I was SO revved I made the dish that night!
Emily Mariko, came up with an incredibly simple idea of adding leftover salmon to rice, then adding a few more ingredients to make a fabulous new dish.
The idea is so insanely simple, I’m completely stunned that no one ever thought of it before!
We can totally do this!
I was already making teriyaki salmon for dinner, so the next step was to gather the ingredients that were needed to make the Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowl.
My method for making teriyaki salmon is crazy simple and crazy delicious. I basically take a piece of salmon. Place it on a greased pan, top it with (gluten free) teriyaki sauce, then convection broil it on medium for around 20 minutes. It always come out perfectly.
It’s super simple to make Teriyaki Salmon! Salmon & Teriyaki Sauce. Easy!
We happened to have a large piece of salmon in the freezer, so I defrosted that and used some of what was leftover for the recipe excitement the next day.
Adding Mango and other flavorful ingredients to make it a Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowl
Emily Mariko warmed her dish and added a few ingredients, but I happen to really like cold teriyaki salmon. I also made healthier short grain brown rice to go with my salmon bowl, which is also pretty good cold.
I simply shredded the leftover salmon with a fork.
This is what the shredded salmon looks like mixed with short grain brown rice.
I decided to add some sweet mango, shredded carrots, cucumber and avocado to the dish. I figured it would kind of be like a sushi bowl but with cooked salmon.
Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Bowl all dressed up and ready to go! Who knew leftovers could be so glamourous!
MMMMMM…
Drizzling a little more teriyaki sauce over the top and some ready made sriracha mayo, made my leftover Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowl incredibly delicious.
It’s a whole new experience the second time around!
I was actually a little surprised by how amazing it was. Dear Husband and I ended up eating the rest of the salmon as the Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowl for dinner that night.
Cant. Wait. To. Eat!
So…it turns out I stink at using chopstick and ended up eating with a fork. It tasted just as good. Believe me!
Here’s the bottom line about Teriyaki Salmon and Mango Rice Bowls
It’s not surprising that this simple concept went viral.
Covid has worn us out. We’re tired. We want things that simplify out lives without compromising on the quality and appeal.
Instead of having a single nights dinner from our tasty teriyaki salmon, I was able to easily put together a gourmet type dish from leftovers. Huge win.
Here’s the recipe
I made this recipe using teriyaki salmon. The other super simple type of salmon we frequently eat is Lemon Pepper Salmon prepared the same way but using lemon pepper seasoning.

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A GLUTEN FREE CHALLAH RECIPE?
I often get request for my Gluten Free Oat Challah Recipes. I developed three different recipes that can be braided, washed and benched upon.
The first is my Original Oat Challah recipe. It’s simple, not too sweet and delicious.
The second is my Honey Oat Challah Recipe. It’s a reader favorite! It’s sweet, easy to make and braid and delicious too!
The third is my Water Oat Challah Recipe. Completely plant based and vegan, you can still braid it and wash and bench. It’s lighter than the other two recipes and easy to make.
