Ingredients
  

Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 6 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 clove garlic

Salad

  • 1 lbs asparagus cut into bite size pieces
  • 5 oz grape tomatoes halved
  • 2 oz Feta Cheese Crumbled
  • 1/3 cup walnuts (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Bring a pot of water to boil. Cut tough ends off asparagus. Then cut the remaining section into bite sized pieces approximately 2" pieces. Cook for approximately 4 minutes. Remove and place in refrigerator or ice bath.
  • Combine vinaigrette ingredients together in a mason jar. Shake well.
  • Place chilled asparagus into serving bowl and add tomatoes, 1/2 of the feta, and walnuts (optional). Toss with vinaigrette. Top with remaining feta. Feta does brown with dressing, that is why I like to top with fresh feta after salad is tossed.
