Asparagus Salad with Egg and Bacon
I’ve been making this Asparagus salad for years, it never gets old! It’s the perfect Spring salad made with just a few simple ingredients – asparagus, hard boiled egg and bacon tossed with a Dijon vinaigrette. I usually eat this for lunch but this would also work as a side dish for Easter.
This is one of my go-to salads this time of year. Asparagus and eggs are a match made in heaven, but not just for breakfast, it’s great for lunch too! I always keep hard boiled eggs on hand in my fridge to use throughout the week, therefore this salad came together in less than 10 minutes. And did you know you can also make hard boiled eggs in the air fryer?
