I love when asparagus starts appearing in the market. Asparagus is a sure sign that spring is on it's way. And I love so many recipes that use asparagus. I did a post last year about how to prepare it. As my readers know I love roasting most veggies, and Asparagus is no exception. Today I made a favorite salad. I've had so many request for this particular salad that I decided to post it. Now is the perfect time to try this recipe. I'm positive you'll love it too.
Bon Appetite, Peggy
