This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The roasted asparagus was delicious and the almonds added a nice crunch.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover roasted asparagus. The citrus dressing is a nice change from the usual vinaigrette and the almonds add a nice crunch.

Wow! This salad is a keeper. The roasted asparagus had a nice smoky flavor and the citrus dressing was light and refreshing. I added some crumbled goat cheese for an extra touch of tanginess.

This citrus asparagus salad was a delightful surprise! The combination of flavors - tangy citrus, roasted asparagus, and crunchy almonds - was simply amazing. I especially loved the zesty dressing, which really brought the dish together.
