Serves 2
POINTS value per serving: 1.5


Ingredients

500g green or/and white asparagus
8-12 cherry tomatoes
1 small onion
3 tsp olive oil (3 pts)
4-5 tsp balsamic vinegar
oregano, salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

First, cut off the coarse woody ends of the asparagus stalks and peel away any blemishes. Cut the asparagus into pieces of about 5cm. Put the crowns to one side, drop the rest of the pieces into a pan of boiling salted water. Wait five minutes, then add the crowns. Cook for a further five to ten minutes or until the asparagus is tender.

Meanwhile, peel and chop the onion and cut the cherry tomatoes in halves or quarters (depending on their size). Put them in a salad bowl.

For the vinaigrette, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a small bowl and season to taste. (If you like basil you might want to add a few finely chopped leaves...)

Add the drained asparagus pieces to the tomatoes and onion and mix with the vinaigrette.

Enjoy!
