Awesome salad. I love the strawberry/orange flavor of this dressing very fresh tasting. More honey can be added depending on the sweetness of your strawberries. Mine were very sweet so I only used three teaspoons, just right for our tastes. The asparagus spears are a nice addition to this salad. First time having strawberry dressing on a salad I was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for posting this recipe its one that we will enjoy again!
