Soups & Salads

Asparagus & Carrot Salad

Asparagus & carrot salad is a shaved salad which is a great way to showcase vegetables. Thinly sliced asparagus, sweet carrots, crisp radish and apple tossed in a lemony vinaigrette make for an incredible springtime salad. Serve it with brunch or as a side dish to a favorite entrée.
