What portion of the plate should be non-starchy vegetables in the 50/25/25 Salmon Rule?

At least 50%

The suggested guideline for structuring a salmon meal to maintain nutritional benefits without excess energy is referred to as the "50/25/25 Salmon Rule." This rule provides a visual blueprint for plate composition aimed at promoting satiety and nutrient density over pure energy load. Specifically, it dictates that the largest component of the plate, at a minimum of 50%, must be composed of non-starchy vegetables. These vegetables contribute fiber and low calories, effectively minimizing the space available for high-calorie additions like heavy sauces or added fats while ensuring the salmon protein source occupies 25% and complex carbohydrates occupy the remaining 25%.
