From a Betty Crocker Booklet from 1992. Very nice salad with the addition of the aspargus and nuts. You can use either white or green asparagus. Allow at least 2 hours of chilling time before being able to serve.

    I made this recipe exactly as written with 1 deviation. I did not use walnuts, as I do not care for them in any form. WOW! This was so light and refreshing. I used leftover rotisserie chicken and happen to find the most gorgeous pencil thin asparagus at the grocery this week. This salad was light, refreshing, tasty and did not leave me feeling like I had to take a nap after eating it. Romaine lettuce really makes this salad and is my favorite lettuce. This one is going into my recipe rounder.
