Tomato Asparagus Salad image

Instead of reaching for the old reliable head of iceberg lettuce to make a plain salad, whip up this refreshing variation instead. With just six ingredients, it's a cinch to prepare and makes an attractive presentation. The fresh flavor of the asparagus and tomato complement each other well.-Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana

This salad is ok, but I've had better. The dressing is a bit too acidic for my taste.

I love asparagus and tomatoes, so I was excited to try this salad. Unfortunately, I found it to be a bit bland. The dressing didn't have much flavor, and the asparagus was a bit tough.

Not bad! The salad is light and refreshing, and the dressing is tasty. I think it would be even better with some grilled chicken or shrimp added to it.

So refreshing and flavorful! I love the contrast between the crunchy asparagus and the juicy tomatoes. The dressing is also really good, with a nice balance of acidity and sweetness.

Great recipe! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The asparagus and tomatoes are always fresh and crisp, and the dressing is just the right amount of tangy and sweet.

This salad is a delightful combination of flavors and textures! The crisp asparagus and juicy tomatoes pair perfectly with the tangy dressing. I added a bit of crumbled feta cheese for an extra boost of flavor. Definitely a keeper!
