Preparation
1
Prep the veggies
  • Thinly slice heirloom tomatoes lengthways.
  • Trim asparagus and cut into thirds.
  • Halve lemon.
  • Thinly slice brie into strips.
2
Steam the asparagus
  • Add asparagus and a splash of water to a microwave-safe bowl, then cover with a damp paper towel.
  • Microwave asparagus on high until just tender, 2-3 minutes.
  • Drain asparagus, then return to the bowl and allow to cool slightly.
3
Make the honey lemon dressing
  • While asparagus is steaming, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, squeeze the whole lemon, add the honey and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine. Season.
4
Finish & serve
  • On a serving plate or platter, place the bowl with the dressing in the centre.
  • Carefully arrange the spinach & rocket mix around the bowl so that it resembles a wreath.
  • Arrange tomato, asparagus and brie slices on top of the salad. Sprinkle over bacon.
  • Dollop over basil pesto and sprinkle over flaked almonds to serve. Enjoy!
