Asparagus Salad With Honey Poppy Seed Vinaigrette image

Nice, light asparagus salad that's easy and quick to throw together. Goes great with seafood, or other rich foods. Note that the dressing probably makes more than you'll need for the salad, so you'll have some left over for other salads.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

I'm not a big fan of honey mustard, but I loved the dressing on this salad. It was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. The asparagus was cooked perfectly and the salad was very refreshing.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love the combination of sweet and sour in the dressing. I've also tried it with grilled shrimp and it was delicious!

I'm not usually a fan of asparagus, but this salad changed my mind! The honey poppy seed dressing is amazing and really brings out the flavor of the asparagus. I'll definitely be making this salad again.

This salad was a huge hit at my last dinner party! I loved the fresh, crisp asparagus and the sweet and tangy dressing. It was the perfect side dish to my grilled salmon.
