This Roasted Asparagus Salad is a plant-based recipe made with asparagus, tomatoes, basil and a light sherry vinaigrette! Add your favorite cheese like fried halloumi, crumbled creamy feta, or shaved parmesan, or skip the cheese to keep this delicious roasted asparagus recipe vegan! Asparagus is one of my favorite spring vegetables, I especially love roasted asparagus. You’ll love this salad recipe as a side dish!
