    Asparagus and avocados lend a nutty flavor to this vibrant green salad. It's a vegan and dairy-free salad that is perfect for when you want something light but tasty.

    Shaved asparagus is a fun way to serve it in a salad and can be served as an elegant appetizer too. Adding avocado makes this a great spring dish.

    How to make asparagus avocado salad

    This is a quick and easy salad that needs to be eaten immediately. The avocado will discolour if left out. Ensure that you have a ripe avocado too.

    This simply salad is fun to make too. Once the asparagus is shaved, the avocado is peeled, the stone removed and then sliced. A simple lemon basil dressing is whisked ready to serve.

    How to shave asparagus

    The asparagus in this salad could be sliced but we had fun by shaving it instead. To shave asparagus cut the woody end of a stalk. Then use a vegetable peeler to slice the length of the stalk.

    Recipe Tips

    Add other low carb ingredients to this salad such as chopped nuts or goats or feta cheese to increase the protein content too.

    Brighten the colour of the salad by adding cherry tomatoes.
