BLUE CHEESE & ASPARAGUS SALAD



Blue Cheese & Asparagus Salad image

Found this recipe on the back of a box of blue cheese and decided to try it. It's a nice blend of flavors and really sets off the asparagus and simple to make. Love that the asparagus is not over cooked and so fresh tasting;I guessed at the size can of mandarin oranges as don't have it handy. I used a small can as didn't want it to sweet - but there's a larger one if you prefer. I did add a teaspoon of balsamic vinager to mine for a little bit of bite, but since the original recipe did not call for it I left it out. Hope you like it.

Perfect for an afternoon snack or a light lunch. I came up with this during quarantine cooking, utilizing some leftover asparagus and part of an avocado that needed to be used up. The addition of the pungent blue cheese really enhances the flavors!

ASPARAGUS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE



Asparagus with Blue Cheese Sauce image

MY SISTER introduced me to this recipe several years ago because she knows I love blue cheese. This dish is a simple way to dress up asparagus, giving it a tangy taste altogether different from the usual cheese sauce. I make it every spring when we have fresh homegrown asparagus. -Leona Luecking West Burlington, Iowa

ASPARAGUS, PICKLED BEETS & BLUE CHEESE SALAD



Asparagus, Pickled Beets & Blue Cheese Salad image

I created this salad after perusing some recipes here and using what I had on hand, avoiding anything too sweet. The pickled beets are just the right ouch of sweet & sour. Looks pretty too! The asparagus can be made well in advance. If your onion is too strong, slice and put in an ice water bath for 5 minutes and drain. Cooking time is blanching and ice water bath time.
