1/2 cup of Pomegranate seeds
2 tablespoons of Olive oil
1 tablespoon of Honey
2 tablespoons of Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/4 cup of Feta cheese, crumbled
Instructions
Start by washing the asparagus thoroughly under cold water. Snap off the tough ends by holding each spear in the middle and bending until it naturally breaks. Slice the spears into 2-inch pieces.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus pieces and blanch for about 2-3 minutes. Transfer them to ice water to stop cooking.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Optionally add herbs like oregano or thyme for additional flavor.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked asparagus with pomegranate seeds. Drizzle the dressing over and toss gently.
Sprinkle crumbled feta on top and serve warm.
