Asparagus Slaw Recipe

Ingredients

2 bunches asparagus
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons dijon mustard
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup smoked almonds
salt and pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Thinly slice your asparagus into coins. Or, cut out a chunk of time by using the slicing attachment (the disk with a single blade on top) on your food processor; simply push the raw asparagus into the food processor.
Once completely sliced, toss the chopped asparagus with the mayo, mustard, lemon juice, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Refrigerate until use, but no more than a few hours in advance.
In the meantime, chop your almonds — coarsely by hand, or using the s-blade attachment on your processor, pulse the almonds until they are chopped. Toss the chopped almonds into the slaw just before serving, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
