Asian Asparagus Salad with Pecans Recipe
This Asian delight uses Fresh Asparagus and turns it into a yummy treat in a marinade of vinegar, olive oil and vegetable oil. Plan it in advance because it tastes best when you allow it to marinade for full 24 hours. However, the salad is worth the wait and is made to complement special events like Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas eve and family get together. The pecans add nutty texture to the salad while the Asparagus brings a rich taste of the marinade. The recipe here is tailored for four people and you can always alter the ingredients if you want a different serving size. The details are given in our step by step guide.
