Perfect asparagus salad for a pre-dinner dish

This salad is not limited to being a bowl of lettuce.


Take it out of your head now thatsalads are limited to lettuce bowls. Robust vegetables like green beans,broccoli, zucchini and asparagus can all play the role of a salad base every little as brilliantly as Roman or iceberg. The saving of time, as we see so strongly in this asparagus salad dish, is the texture contrast: the sweet nail of theasparagus, the creamage of soft egg yolk, crunch crumbs grilled bread. This can be a preheat at dinner (especially if you have guests), or a light meal alone. Better yet, double the recipe and freeze some for a busy week. Enjoy!

Homemade bread band

The crumbs of bread buying in the store are well to coat the chicken or like a bond in meatballs, but to add texture and flavor to salads, soups and pasta, make your own. Remove the crust from an old loaf of bread and tear the inside into pieces of pebbles. Heat a little oil in a saucepan and cook the bread for about 5 minutes, until brown gold and grilled. For an extra layer of flavor, add everythingcloves of garlic or fresh herbs to flavor the cooking oil.
