A Nutty Spring Salad

Today my second recipe hits the Peanut Butter & Co. All Stars Recipe blog. What do spring greens, peanut butter, and white chocolate have to do together? Surprisingly, they make a terrific salad recipe.

White chocolate used for savory recipes is something that’s always intrigued me. What better time to try out a chocolate recipe than Easter when you’re already eating chocolate eggs and chocolate bunnies?

The dressing is made with White Chocolate Wonderful peanut butter and mustard creating a sweet, savory, nutty and smooth taste that pairs well with the tomatoes and asparagus spears. It’s has a terrific light taste that’s perfect to start off a meal. 

I have another asparagus recipe to post tomorrow. I promise this won’t turn into asparagus week–unless that’d be a good thing in which case bring on the asparagus.

    Oooh I don’t think there is such a thing as too much asparagus! I love it simply bbq’d or grilled, tossed into salads or on a pizza. I may have to experiment with it a little more! Can’t wait to see what else you have planned =)
