There were late season asparagus on sale at the grocery store, so I decided to give this a try. The asparagus was kind of stringy. We decided we like our asparagus plain better. The tomato and dressing didn't combine well and it was kind of messy.

I just loved the warm tomato vinagrette and I'm already hunting for other things to put it on. So simple - so tasty! K9 Owned/Lesley

I used white asparagus for this recipe, which I find to be more bitter than green asparagus, so I upped the amount of honey in the sauce and was pleased with the results. The sauce is great.<br/>Made for ZWT9.
