How to Make Spring Salad
First, toss asparagus and chickpeas with olive oil and roast until crispy. Next, cut up all of your produce including your radishes, RubyFrost apples, avocado, green onions, etc. Whisk together all of the ingredients for your lemon vinaigrette and set aside. When your asparagus and chickpeas are lightly crispy, remove from the oven and chop asparagus. When putting your salad together, you can either toss everything together or lay out the salad first and then top with all of your toppings. Whatever works best.
This is how I made my spring salad but if you have other similar ingredients on hand, please feel free to swap ingredients. Use whatever kind of salad, spinach or arugula you have. Skip one ingredient if you don’t have it, the options are endless to make it your own.
