Ingredients:

For croutons:
1/2 lb. French or Italian bread, preferably slightly stale
1/4 cup olive oil
1 Tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
For dressing:
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, plus more for serving
For salad:
1 lb. asparagus, ends trimmed
1 (10 oz) container NatureSweet® Cherubs® tomatoes, quartered
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Tear bread into approximately 1” cubes and spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour olive oil, thyme, and salt over bread and toss to combine. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 10-12 minutes, tossing halfway through.
In a small bowl, whisk all ingredients for the dressing until combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Shave asparagus spears with a vegetable peeler along the length to create thin ribbons. In a medium bowl, toss shaved asparagus with dressing until coated.
