Steps:
- Make the dressing: Place all the ingredients in a jar and give it a vigorous shake. Alternatively, you can place everything in a small bowl and whisk until emulsified.
- To Blanch asparagus: Fill a large pot with water and a tablespoon of salt and bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, fill a large bowl with water and ice and set it aside. Place asparagus in the hot boiling water and let cook for 3-4 minutes.
- While it is cooking, fill a bowl with cold water and add some ice in it.
- Using a slotted spoon transfer the asparagus into the bowl with ice water. Do not discard the boiling water.
- To blanch peas: Add the peas into the now empty pot with the boiling water. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the peas are softened to your liking. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in the ice water (where the cooked asparagus is)
- Drain both vegetables and set them aside.
- To assemble the salad: Place the butter lettuce leaves in a large salad bowl. Add in blanched asparagus and peas, cucumber slices, radish slices, sliced almonds, avocado cubes, and parmesan cheese, if using.
- Drizzle with the lemon salad dressing and give it a gentle toss. Serve.

BUTTER LETTUCE SALAD WITH CANDIED WALNUTS
This is a delicious salad that I adapted from one by Sandra Lee of Semi-Homemade Cooking on the Food Network. She recommends using an Asian-style salad dressing such as miso dressing or ginger dressing. We definitely prefer using a raspberry walnut vinaigrette. Also, the amount of cinnamon used in the candied walnuts may be decreased if desired -- I prefer just a little less, as well as the fact that the cinnamon seems to make it take longer for the walnuts to crystallize in the oven. I hope you enjoy this!

THE sweetened walnuts add a nice crunch to this salad and a taste compatible with oranges. The dressing is sweet, tangy and light...just right for the simple ingredients of the salad.
