This fresh, vibrant lentil salad and salmon dish is hearty yet light, perfect for warm weather. I tossed black beluga lentils, arugula, avocado, grapefruit, and red onion in a lemony dressing made with whole grain mustard, honey, and fresh dill that does double duty as the salmon marinade and ties everything together. After a few minutes under the broiler, the charred salmon is placed over the lentil salad and garnished with herbs and lemon slices. Ideal for lunch or dinner, you can pack it up for a picnic or easily pull it together on a busy weeknight.

This is a recipe I got from my childhood best friend, college roommate, and partner in all things related to having tea parties, bingeing on whipped cream and scones, building snow forts, trying to find the source of creeks, spiking hot chocolate, climbing mountains, and other adventures of all sorts. I think she got it from her godmother, who is the ultimate hostess (she has one of those giant houses with stone lions out front, which basically means you're required to be a good hostess).
