BALSAMIC ASPARAGUS AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD

Balsamic asparagus and cherry tomato salad image

Raw garlic gives an assertive, sharp flavor to this fantastic asparagus salad recipe. It requires just eight ingredients to make, two of which include salt and pepper, so it'll soon become a go-to. Plus you need 10 minutes to throw it together, thanks to a quick blanching of the asparagus, which is the only cooking that's required. Mix the garlic with a little bit of balsamic vinegar and unsweetened orange juice for the easiest dressing ever. You can also incorporate red onions into the salad if you have any on hand. Chop up any of the salad leftovers and toss with whole wheat pasta for an easy main dish.

ASPARAGUS WITH BALSAMIC BUTTER (WEIGHT WATCHERS 0 POINTS)

Asparagus With Balsamic Butter (Weight Watchers 0 Points) image

From Weight Watchers' Five Ingredient Fifteen Minute cookbook (Spring 2008). The recipe calls for boiling the asparagus but really you should cook the asparagus by your preferred method. I prefer to saute my asparagus in a little olive oil and sea salt. Enjoy :)
