1avocado, chopped
DirectionsTo prepare dressing: Halve and pit avocado. Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender. Add vinegar, lemon juice, oil, dill, chives, syrup, garlic powder, pepper and water. Puree until smooth, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons more water if it seems too thick. (Makes about 1 cup.)To prepare salad: Bring a large skillet of water to a simmer. Add asparagus and cook until barely done, 1 to 3 minutes, depending on the thickness of the spears. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water. When the asparagus is cool, remove from the ice water and dry thoroughly. Set aside.Toss chickpeas, cabbage, tomatoes, corn, radishes, lettuce and the blanched asparagus together in a large bowl. Pour 3/4 cup dressing over the vegetables; toss to coat. Add more dressing if desired. Divide between 6 plates or bowls. Top each serving with avocado.TipsTip: Umeboshi vinegar, aka ume plum vinegar, is the pickling brine from making Japanese pickled plums. Find it in the Japanese or Asian section of your supermarket or with the other vinegars, or online. Eden Foods is one widely available brand. If you can’t find umeboshi vinegar, red- or white-wine vinegar or lemon juice would all work well as a substitute. Because the umeboshi vinegar is quite salty, if you substitute another vinegar or lemon juice, you might find the dressing needs a little added salt.Originally appeared: EatingWell.com, May 2020

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
