Notes
- ** You can eat this salad at room temperature. Try to make the same day you want to eat it as the asparagus gets softer. If using haloumi pan fry it in small pieces and add to the salad. Use rice crumbs for gluten free ( available in health food stores) If you can't find sage use fresh picked basil. No need to cook.
