Rinse the asparagus and immerse in a bath of ice water.

In a small bowl whisk together the avocado oil, lemon juice and mustard until a creamy dressing is formed. Chill until ready to serve.

When ready to enjoy first take the 4 remaining stalks of asparagus and shave the outside with a vegetable peeler to create a fresh garish to top the salad.
-
Layer 4-5 pieces of the chilled asparagus on a plate, then top with the shaved raw asparagus, capers and dressing.

Enjoy fresh or pack to take for a healthy snack!
