Goat Cheese and Asparagus Salad is one of those fresh, unfussy dishes that feels instantly put together. Tender asparagus and creamy goat cheese carry the flavor, while a light Mediterranean-style vinaigrette ties everything together. It works as an easy spring salad for lunch or as a simple side for dinner, and it comes together in about 20 minutes. Clean, bright, and quietly impressive.
