Ingredients
Serves 6
• 2 pounds asparagus, trimmed

• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• 1 tablespoon minced fresh herbs, such as basil, chives or flat-leaf parsley
Directions
1. Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Place asparagus in a steamer basket set over a pot of boiling water. Cover and steam until just tender. Remove and transfer to ice-water bath until cool. Remove and pat dry. Place asparagus on a platter (or divide between 6 individual plates); set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together shallot, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper, and vinegar. While whisking constantly, add the oil in a slow, steady stream until completely incorporated. Whisk in the herbs. Drizzle vinaigrette over asparagus. Serve immediately.

I thought this was going to be about cornbread dressing, or rice dressing.

Mango and Plum Salsa

Need

2 ripe mangos cut in 1/4 inch pieces, save as much of the juice as you can
6 ripe red plums, cut in 1/4 inch pieces, save as much of the juice as you can
1/2 Red Onion fine mince (2 Tablespoons)
2 teaspoon Lawry’s garlic salt
2 T coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon lime zest
The juice from 2 limes

It is acceptable to macerate some of the plums and mango to make a little juice if the salsa seems dry. Be careful to leave most of the mango and plums cut in pieces and not mashed. This salsa needs to be chunky.

The salsa is best if it is made 2-3 hours ahead and chilled. This stuff would be wonderful on a Ms. Paul’s fish stick

My wife is sick that Costco quit selling this dressing in a 2 bottle pack at a cost of what a single bottle costs at most retail outlets.
