Fresh Spring Salad
Asparagus, Strawberries and Spinach, Oh my!
Have I mentioned how much I love this time of year? I am reveling in the abundance of fresh asparagus, kale, lettuce, spinach and strawberries.
Today I stopped by a local produce stand and picked up a bunch of asparagus, a bag of spinach, a beautiful head of lettuce and some of the sweetest fresh-picked strawberries I've ever had. When I got home it was lunch time. I didn't even have to think twice about what to make.
This is my favorite kind of salad. It always starts with a fresh bed of lettuce, or whatever greens I have on hand. Next comes the "meat" of the salad. Sometimes my "meat" is leftover beans or quinoa from the night before, sometimes it's whatever vegetables I have fresh. Today it was asparagus.
I sauteed my asparagus in coconut oil and sprinkled it with Himalayan salt. Next, I sliced my fresh strawberries for sweetness and color, and topped the salad off with sliced almonds and a squeeze of fresh lemon. Voila. So simple. So satisfying.
