Asparagus and Orange Salad


Gold Post Medal for All Time! 846 Posts

All I can say is, "Refreshing!" :-)

Ingredients:

  • 2 naval oranges, preferably seedless, peeled and segments separated
  • 2 Tbsp. orange juice
  • Advertisement

  • 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp. orange zest
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb. asparagus spears, tough ends removed and broken into thirds
  • salted sunflower seeds to taste

Directions:

Whisk together orange juice, olive oil, vinegar and zest in a small bowl, season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Bring a medium pot of water to boil and prepare an ice bath. Boil asparagus until just tender, about 2 to 3 minutes, drain and place in ice bath right away. Once asparagus is cooled, drain and place on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry.

Place asparagus on plates, top with orange segments, drizzle with vinaigrette, sprinkle with sunflower seeds and serve.

Hiya Lila,
Looks great. The only change I would be tempted to make would be to supreme the oranges.
XOXO-
