Honeyed Asparagus, Shallot and Kale Salad

Honeyed Asparagus Salad

Streusel

Aaaahhh, the sun is glorious right now in Denver!  Warmer weather puts me in the mood for salads.  I get bored pretty quickly with the standard salad fare.  Lucky for me, my friend Cristy, gave me a beautiful cookbook, Pascale Beale’s Salade.  This book inspires gorgeous, flavor filled salads with Apples. Pears, Beets, Figs, Mushrooms and more!

It inspired me to make this salad today on this fine warm Sunday!  Not only did this book inspire me to mix and match vegetables, flavors and textures…It also has some great recipes for unique vinaigrette, most notably an Avocado Vinaigrette!

This salad takes a few steps but it’s worth each step and when it all comes together you have a crisp kale salad, topped with warm asparagus and shallots and topped with creamy hunks of goat cheese and a slightly tart and cool avocado vinaigrette.
