Recipe for Asparagus Salad
You'll love this easy-to-make asparagus salad made with raw asparagus, Parmesan, and pistachios.
Servings: 4 approximately
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 bunch asparagus spears small
- 1/2 cup roasted and salted pistachios chopped
- 1 head butter lettuce washed, dried, and torn into bite size pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
Notes
Save the tips and sauté them to add to a veggie pasta or to a frittata.
Tear the lettuce leaves into smaller pieces instead of chopping because butter lettuce is very tender and the lettuce will bruise and risk getting a bit mushy.
I buy the pistachios already roasted which saves a step. They are also usually salted, so you don't need much salt.
