BALSAMIC ASPARAGUS AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD
Raw garlic gives an assertive, sharp flavor to this fantastic asparagus salad recipe. It requires just eight ingredients to make, two of which include salt and pepper, so it'll soon become a go-to. Plus you need 10 minutes to throw it together, thanks to a quick blanching of the asparagus, which is the only cooking that's required. Mix the garlic with a little bit of balsamic vinegar and unsweetened orange juice for the easiest dressing ever. You can also incorporate red onions into the salad if you have any on hand. Chop up any of the salad leftovers and toss with whole wheat pasta for an easy main dish.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2. Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper.
- 3. Bake asparagus 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until tender.
- 4. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat, and stir in soy sauce and balsamic vinegar. I add a little sugar, we like things a little sweet. Pour over the baked asparagus and serve.
