The sweet, slightly tart goji berries are among the healthiest fruits in the world because of the numerous vital substances they contain. They are considered mood-lifting and support the work of the kidneys and liver. Asparagus spears contain a lot of the dietary fiber inulin. This makes the vegetable the perfect choice for filling salads.

Outside the asparagus season, you can replace the green vegetables with zucchini or cucumber. Before serving, distribute the dressing well by turning the jar. If you don't like the asparagus raw, saute it for 1-2 minutes in 1 tablespoon hot olive oil. Then season asparagus with salt and pepper, let cool and divide into the glasses.
