Sometimes a salad is super easy and super good. This salad is about the essence of great spring flavors, tender asparagus, and fresh peas in a light lemon dressing. The bold asparagus is balanced by the sweet peas and the dressing adds that perfect pop of flavor. Yes, simple can be so good! I had some good Parmesan cheese in my fridge, so I grated some on top for an additional pop of salt.

I found this beautiful book on salads hiding in the bookstore under the local authors section. I took a glance through it and had to purchase it immediately, something I rarely ever do. A cookbook packed with amazing salads for every season and appetite, from this light spring creation to hearty lentil salads to fresh fruit salad.

Ingredients:

Zest of 1 lemon or 2 limes

Juice of 1 lemon or 1 lime

4 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

4 oz baby arugula

2 small bunches asparagus, if you can find them in different colors, the salad will look lovely, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

2 cups mixed basil, Italian and Thai

1/2 lb fresh peas, or frozen ok


Mix the lemon juice, 3 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper together. Set aside.

Add 1 tablespoon oil to a large frying pan and sauté the asparagus, peas and lemon zest with some salt and pepper. Cook till the asparagus and peas turn a bright green and are just cooked through, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool. Do not overcook the vegetables and turn them green-grey please!


To serve, toss the cooked asparagus in the lemon juice-olive oil mix. Taste and adjust seasonings. Add this to the center of a bowl adding the arugula and basil around the mix. Serve Immediately.
