Asparagus with Balsamic Tomatoes & Feta

A delicious Springtime recipe. Serve this Asparagus with Balsamic Tomatoes and Feta alongside crusty bread for a light lunch or as a veg accompaniment to a main meal.

Asparagus with Balsamic Tomatoes & Feta

I used a mixture of fresh plum cherry tomatoes and jarred sun dried tomatoes and I also used the oil from the jar of sundried tomatoes for extra flavour.

With the UK asparagus season officially starting this week, this is definitely going to be my go-to dish this summer.

    I’m so glad spring is here, because it means asparagus is in season! Here in California I can get asparagus year round, but they are much more affordable this time of year. One time I accidentally spent $11 on a bunch of asparagus in the middle of winter. Whoops! The balsamic tomatoes and feta sound delicious : )
