Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

04

Step

Season with salt and drizzle with lemon juice. (1 minute)

05

Step

Place in a bowl and add cherry tomatoes. (1 minute)

06

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard, sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon salt. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the asparagus instead of stir-frying it.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as bell peppers, red onion, or cucumber.
A sprinkle of toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds would also make a delicious addition.
If you don't have white balsamic vinegar, you can use regular balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar instead.
Adjust the amount of sugar and lemon juice to taste.
