SALAD WITH EGGS AND ASPARAGUS

Salad with eggs and asparagus, a perfect spring dish. With the addition of potatoes, it becomes a unique, rich, and hearty dish. Finally, to add color and a bit more character to the dish, I added pomegranate seeds, juicy and tangy, which contrast with the sweetness of the potatoes. If you too, like me, enjoy recipes with eggs or mixed salads and salads with fruit included
