Asparagus with Blue Cheese and Chive Vinaigrette

Here is a yummy recipe I wanted to share from a friend (it is super yummy)!

Asparagus with Blue Cheese and Chive Vinaigrette

Ingredients
1/2 lb. asparagus spears
1 tsp. red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp crumbled blue cheese (or feta)
1 Tbsp minced chives
freshly ground pepper

Snap ends off asparagus. Fill medium skillet with 1 inch water and bring to boil. Add asparagus in single layer and cook 8 to 10 minutes or until tender. Drain well and arrange on serving plates.
Stir together vinegar and oil in small bowl. Add cheese and chives and mix well. Pour over hot asparagus. Season to taste with pepper.

You can also roast the asparagus and put the blue cheese on it while hot from the oven!
