Springtime Asparagus, Strawberry, & Arugula Salad Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by laurenzembron

Number Of Ingredients 10

15 spears asparagus, preferably organic, woody end trimmed and spears cut into 2-inch pieces
3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1/2 teaspoon country Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon honey
2 big handfuls baby arugula, preferably organic
1/2 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced, preferably organic
2 tablespoons blue cheese, freshly crumbled
1 tablespoon toasted almonds, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss asparagus pieces with 1 teaspoon olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Lay out in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the dressing: in a sealable jar (or small bowl) combine the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, and honey. Shake (or whisk) until emulsified; season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss the arugula with the dressing, and then gently toss in the sliced strawberries and asparagus. Top salad with blue cheese crumbles and sliced almonds.

This springtime salad was a delightful burst of freshness! The asparagus and strawberries were perfectly crisp and sweet, and the arugula added a nice peppery bite. The dressing was light and tangy, and brought all the flavors together beautifully.
