I did! And I can assure you: it's great! It makes salads so light and refreshing.
Combined with avocado and you have a perfect match!


Avocado Salad with Asparagus & Pomegranate (serves one)

Ingredients

For the salad:

- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 1 small red onion, into wedges, roasted (400°F/200°C - 30/40 minutes)
- 4-5 green asparagus, roasted (400°F/200°C - 30/40 minutes)

- green salad mixture

For the vinaigrette:

- 1 tbsp of lemon olive oil (or olive oil + lemon juice)
- 2 tbsp of balsamic vinaigrette

Method

First make the vinaigrette by mixing the ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.

Make the salad by putting together the sliced avocado, roasted red onion, asparagus and green salad mixture on a deep plate.

(About my recipe page: I'm trying to add some pictures for each recipe, but for some reason, Blogger doesn't accept it. I'm trying to solve the problem but I can't find the solution. Keep working on that!)
