Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pound(s) (2 bunches) asparagus, trimmed
1 pint(s) tiny cherry or pear tomatoes, red or mixed colors
1 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon(s) salt, divided
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Reserve half of the dressing in a small bowl. 4.Add watercress to the medium bowl; toss to coat. Spread the watercress on a platter. Arrange the roasted asparagus on the watercress and top with tomatoes. Drizzle the reserved dressing over the asparagus and tomatoes; sprinkle with dill. Serve warm or at room temperature. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
