Instructions
  1. 1
    Prep the salmon:

    Cut the salmon into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  2. 2
    Make the Marinade:

    In a bowl, mix garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and olive oil until well combined.

  3. 3
    Marinate:

    Pour the marinade over the salmon, tossing gently to coat. Let it sit for 5 minutes.

  4. 4
    Bake the Salmon:

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the marinade salmon on a lined baking tray and bake for 12 minutes, or until just cooked through and slightly crispy on the edges.

  5. 5
    Make the Slaw:
    • While the salmon bakes, finely shred cabbage, julienne the carrots, and dice the tomatoes and mangoes. 
    • Chop cilantro and thinly slice the red onion. Toss everything together with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  6. 6
    Mix the Sauce:

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha, and a drizzle of honey. Mix until smooth and creamy.

  7. 7
    Assemble your Bowl:

    In your serving bowl, layer the following:

    • A base of warm purple rice
    • Baked salmon pieces
    • A generous heap of the veggie-mango slaw
    • Couple slices of avocado
    • Drizzle with your sriracha-honey mayo sauce
