When asparagus is in season, this is the best barbecue salad. It's green, hearty and the yoghurt dressing is easily made in advance (it'll keep for a few days in the fridge). We love it with an easy steak dinner or a simple lamb chops from the barbecue and it's even better if you've made extra roast potatoes the night before - a great way to use up leftovers!
