Ingredients:

Serving

1-1/2 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tbsp plus 1/2 cup olive oil, divided
1/4 tsp salt
1-1/2 lb uncooked penne pasta
3/4 cup chopped green onions
6 tbsp white wine vinegar
2 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 package (6 oz) fresh baby spinach
1 cup coarsely chopped cashews
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Directions:

Place asparagus in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil; sprinkle with salt. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until crisp-tender, stirring every 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain.
In a blender, combine the onions, vinegar and soy sauce; cover and process until smooth. While processing, gradually add the remaining oil in a steady steam.
In a large salad bowl, combine the pasta, spinach and asparagus. Drizzle with dressing; toss to coat. Sprinkle with cashews and cheese. Yield: 14-16 servings.
