Summer Salmon Salad

Fresh and full of superfoods, this salad will boost your immune system—but all you will know is that your taste buds are dancing in delight. For less of a kick in the dressing, substitute yellow mustard for Dijon. For a heartier kick, sub with horseradish mustard. The varieties of mustard are so plentiful that you can enjoy a different salad each time. This meal is also great with cod, shrimp, or even lobster!
