It's Sunday and time for another #SundaySupper! This week we're inspired by Spring and are sharing some of our favorite recipes that make us think of spring coming. To me, I always think of a salad made with fresh raw ingredients when someone mentions spring. I love a fresh and crisp salad that can be enjoyed on a warm spring day.
This recipe is a really simple raw salad that easy to make, but balances the distinct flavor of asparagus with the sweetness of apples and bell pepper.
Be sure to check out everyone else's spring recipe underneath mine, and join us at 7pm tonight for our twitter chat! Just search for #sundaysupper.
Asparagus Bell Pepper Salad
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Serves: 2 people
Ingredients
1 bell pepper
1 handful of shredded carrots
3 stalks of asparagus
half of one apple
half of one lemon
salt and pepper
Steps
Thinly slice the pepper, asparagus, and apple into very thin strips, about the same thickness as the shredded carrots. Combine the pepper, carrots, asparagus, and apple in a bowl. Add the juice of the lemon and a dash of salt and pepper. Toss, and serve as an appetizer or a side.
