Seems like everyone is still on the kick on eating healthy this year. I have been trying to add more raw veggies into my diet. This asparagus salad has become a favorite in my house. Not only does it look beautiful, but it tastes amazing and refreshing. The salad goes great with a side of homemade soup. You can top also it with pretty much anything. I used shaved parmesan and toasted pine nuts. Enjoy!
