Spicy Salmon Quinoa Bowl

I hardly get to have Salmon in the house … the Mr. has a serious phobia of the little bones in them and he never fails to find at least 3 little ones in ANY salmon he eats. I can find none in my piece but he always finds a couple. I think he is just hyper sensitive to the texture … I never have any issues. Every 9-12 months I convince him we should try salmon again, I cook it, fall in love and he basically plays with his food like a child LOL. So now I buy Salmon to eat for lunches alone so I can get creative and enjoy. This spicy salmon quinoa bowl is delicious and actually a super easy/healthy lunch dish!
