Asparagus and brussel sprout salad w/dijon vinaigrette - JWU Ashley's support group recipe

This is the last recipe I owe you all from the post-op support group with Ashley, annnnnnd asparagus is in season now! Make sure you pick up the thin ones as they will be the most tender.

3/4 cup asparagus, thinly sliced
1 cup brussel sprouts, thinly sliced
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon dried cherries, finely chopped
1/4 cup almonds, sliced and toasted
1/2 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
juice of half a lemon
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1. Combine all the ingredients starting with the mustard down to the end of the list in a bowl, whisk and set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add asparagus and brussel sprouts to the pan and cook until vegetables are partially softened, about 3-5 minutes.
3. Transfer vegetables to the bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Add cherries and almonds.

ENJOY!
