Spring Potato and Asparagus Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette

I’ve got a delicious salad recipe to share today. It’s refreshing, it’s fulfilling, and it’s the perfect recipe to welcome spring. It makes for a wonderful addition for your next gathering.
This recipe was the result of some experimenting. I was craving a salad, but one with some substance. I wanted protein, I wanted greens, and I wanted it absolutely flavorful. I had just brought home some beautiful green asparagus and radishes. I looked into my fridge and pantry, and within minutes, I knew exactly what I wanted to make.
A salad with asparagus, radishes, potatoes, boiled eggs, fresh, earthy herbs – all drenched in a zesty, flavorful vinaigrette. I coined it the Spring Potato And Asparagus Salad.
And boy was it delicious. My family absolutely loved it. I had some leftovers and packed a bit in everyone’s lunch for the next day.
Then I made it again. And again. And, well, it became a pretty recurring dish on our table during the season of spring.
Now that we’ve got warmer weather approaching (fingers crossed), I thought it would be the best time to share the recipe with you.
Here’s why I’m so sure you’ll absolutely love it too!
It’s healthy. You get protein from eggs, healthy fats from olive oil, and plenty of vitamins and minerals from asparagus, radishes, shallots, and herbs.
It’s delicious. This is not a bowl of boring salad. It’s packed with so many delicious flavors that come together for an ultimate bite.
It’s easy to make. The only thing you’re “cooking” here is the eggs. Everything else gets chopped and mixed together. Easy peasy!
