Marinated Asparagus, Tomatoes, and Hearts of Palm



This is another Pioneer Woman recipe. I can't rave about her enough!  It is becoming asparagus season here and this was a recipe I wanted to try.  Sometimes I just have an urge for a salad that isn't so leafy and this hit the spot. I think it turned out great.

  3. I like this - nice and light and very different from a 'traditional' salad. I used some hearts of palm a while back and made risotto - it was delish1
