Asparagus and Tomato Salad with Berries and Melon

I found a really beautiful and refreshing summer salad over at O&CO. I didn't actually use their products to dress my salad, but it still turned out great!

I didn't have cherry tomatoes so I chopped regular tomatoes, and I grilled my asparagus rather than boiling it. We were already grilling chicken so I figured what the heck, let's just throw the asparagus on the grill. If a bit of char bothers you, go ahead and boil yours.

I didn't measure anything for this recipe, but I'll give you the estimates of what I think I put in. It's salad, it doesn't need to be perfectly measured.

I don't need to tell you to wash your fruits and veggies, do I?

  2. What a fun combo of flavors...berries and asparagus aren't a combo I would think of, but I'm betting the sweetness and earthiness pair quite well!

  10. Looks great! I was considering a salad with asparagus for my post this month and didn't go with it. Now I know I need to make a salad like this!
