Sauteed Cherry Tomatoes and Asparagus

​
This is one of the fastest and easiest sides to throw on the plate for a quick dinner. The lightly sauteed tomatoes provide a juicy surprise on your palate no matter what you serve it with. This side was served with my slow roasted salmon (as seen in the photo). ​
