ASPARAGUS SALAD

Category: Salad

•1 pound fresh asparagus, cooked and drained
•1/2 teaspoon salt
•1 1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard
•2 tablespoons salad oil
•2 tablespoons vinegar
•2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
•lettuce
•1 to 2 tablespoons chopped roasted red bell pepper

Place asparagus in a shallow dish. In bowl, combine salt, mustard, oil, vinegar, and minced onion. Pour over asparagus. Cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours. Drain off marinade and serve asparagus on lettuce-lined plates with a sprinkling of roasted red pepper.

Note: I like adding crumbled bacon or pancetta and chopped hard boiled eggs.
