Add in the garlic and saute/fry briefly till the aroma is released. Remove from the heat. Stir in the parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper and set aside to cold.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, lightly toss the baby greens with about half of the Almond Vinaigrette. Divide into 6 portions and place on serving plates. Divide the mushrooms and sprinkle across the top.
  4. In the same bowl, toss the blanched asparagus with the remaining vinaigrette. Divide among the salads, fanning the spears across the top.
  5. This recipe yields 6 servings.
