Ingredients

Servings

Dressing:

  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup of fresh basil chopped
  • ¼ cup of fresh parsley chopped
  • 1-2 tsp shallot finely chopped
  • 1 clove of garlic minced
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Salad:

  • 1 lb asparagus spears ends removed and cut into thirds
  • dressing
  • ¼ cup toasted pine nuts
  • ¼ cup red onion sliced thin
  • feta cheese
  • Sea Salt and Freshly Cracked Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing by combining all ingredients except for oil in a food processor. Pulse until well mixed then slowly drizzle olive oil in while pulsing. Taste and re-season if needed; set aside to allow the flavors time to mingle.
  2. Make the salad by bringing a large saucepan of water to boil over high heat. Drop asparagus into the water and cook for 1-2 minutes, until bright green and slightly softened.
  3. Drain asparagus and place it in an ice bath immediately. Drain and place asparagus spears in a large bowl.
  4. Toss spears, pine nuts, and red onion with the dressing (I used a little at a time so I wouldn't overdress - there was still quite a bit left over). Toss to coat evenly then sprinkle feta cheese on top. Serve and enjoy.
