Raw Spring Kale, Asparagus and Blackberry Salad
It was so good! Dare I say it about a salad...downright addictive. I could not stop tasting it before I actually served it. The dressing is creamy, but light and lemony, and the sweet blackberries are a wonderful contrast to it. The asparagus is perfect with the dressing as well since it loves citrus and the pistachios add a nice crunch. Do yourself a favor and whip up a batch, you deserve to enjoy it too!
