About recipe

It’s time to think beyond the oh-so-tasty yet straightforward roasted asparagus!  Try dishes like a spring veggie frittata, yellowfin tuna “burgers” with asparagus on the grill, and colorful salads using asparagus raw, or cooked and chilled.

  • 1 bunch asparagus, cut into thirds
  • 3 cups spinach
  • 1/2 cup radish sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, sliced in half

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Juice of one lemon
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
