The tangy mustard dill sauce is a great complement to both the salmon
and asparagus in this Healthiest Way of Eating recipe. It also provides

vitamin K, niacin, selenium, protein and tryptophan.
Prep and Cook Time: 20 minutes
1 1/2 lb salmon filet, skin and bones removed and cut into 4 pieces
1 Tbsp PLUS 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 bunches asparagus, bottom fourth removed
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt and white pepper to taste
Mustard Dill Sauce
4 oz silken tofu
1 Tbsp prepared mustard such as Dijon
4 Tbsp fresh dill chopped
1 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup water
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Bring 2 inches of lightly salted water to a boil in a steamer with a
tight fitting lid.
While water is coming to a boil, put all sauce ingredients except olive
oil in a blender and begin to blend on high speed for about one minute.
While blender is running, drizzle olive oil in a little at a time. Set
aside.
Snap off tough asparagus ends. When water is at a full boil place asparagus
in steamer basket, cover, and cook until asparagus is tender, about 3-5 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove from steamer, toss with 1 Tbsp
lemon juice, 1 Tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper.
Rub salmon with 1 Tbsp lemon juice and season with a little salt and
pepper.
Place salmon in the same steamer basket and steam until pink inside, about
3-4 minutes. Place salmon on a plate and pour desired amount of sauce over
it and the asparagus.
