PEELED ASPARAGUS SALAD WITH RADISH AND TOASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS
With farm-fresh asparagus, no cooking is needed. If the stalks are fat, slice them lengthwise with a simple kitchen peeler; if they're skinny, just chop everything up fine. Add radishes, fresh herbs, pea tendrils (if available), toasted pumpkin seeds, and you have an easy, incredibly vibrant salad. Add Parmesan or cut-up hard-boiled eggs if you like. Finish with olive oil and lemon juice.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, toss pumpkin seeds with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Scatter seeds on a sheet pan and place in oven for 6 to 7 minutes or until light brown. Set aside to cool.
- Peel asparagus from just below the top of the stalk, creating long strips. Place the asparagus into a large bowl. Set aside the tops of the asparagus for garnish.
- Remove the stems and roots from the radishes. Slice into thin circles with a knife or mandoline. Place in the large bowl with the asparagus.
- To the asparagus and radish mixture, add the dill, parsley, chives, pea tendrils, lemon juice, ¼ cup olive oil, and toasted pumpkin seeds, adding salt and pepper to taste. Toss.
- Garnish with the reserved asparagus tops and chive flowers, and serve.
