Grilled Asparagus Salad

Prep = 15 min; Inactive =0 min; Cook = 6 min; 6 servings; WW Points = 3

Ingredients

  • 1 pound uncooked asparagus, tough ends trimmed
  • 2 sprays cooking spray
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • 1 head (medium) lettuce, red leaf, torn (about 6 cups)
  • 3/4 cups uncooked green peas
  • 1 small uncooked red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 large oranges, navel, segmented, membranes reserved*
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese, or gorgonzola cheese
  • 2 Tbsp low-fat vinaigrette salad dressing

Directions

Preheat grill (or grill pan) to high.
Coat asparagus with cooking spray; sprinkle with salt. Grill asparagus until lightly charred and softened, turning once, about 5 to 6 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature; slice into 1-inch pieces and place in a serving bowl.
Add remaining ingredients to asparagus and squeeze orange membranes over top; toss to coat. Yields about 1 heaping cup per serving.
