There She Goes Again.

There are certain flavor combos that just always seem to work (assuming the quality of ingredients is good)...basil + tomatoes + mozzarella, beets + goat cheese, bacon + anything, and of course, lemon + goat cheese + asparagus.

Now, I've already posted one LGCA (watch...it's gonna take off like EVOO) recipe on here, but I swear that this one is different. See, instead of pasta it's made with couscous and farro; the asparagus is cut into 2-inch pieces rather than 1-inch pieces; there are almonds instead of tarragon; and the goat cheese is crumbled not melted. If that's not entirely different, I don't know what is.

Aren't you glad you read all the way through instead of just dismissing this as another one of those LGCA (like wildfire, I say) recipes?

    Variations on this salad are a staple on most restaurant menus out here.

    Enjoy!
