2 lbs asparagus, trimmed (about 2 bunches)
1 pint cherry tomatoes (red or mixed colors)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
fresh ground pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 bunches watercress, tough stems removed (about 4 cups lightly packed)
2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped

1
Preheat oven to 450u00b0F
2
Place asparagus in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and oil and toss to coat. Spread in a heavy roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet, spooning the tomatoes between and on top of the asparagus. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and add a generous grinding of pepper. Roast until the asparagus is crisp-tender and the tomatoes are warmed and slightly crinkled, about 15 minutes. Set aside until ready to serve.
3
Whisk lemon juice, orange juice, honey, mustard and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until blended. Reserve half of the dressing in a small bowl.
4
Add watercress to the medium bowl; toss to coat. Spread the watercress on a platter. Arrange the roasted asparagus on the watercress and top with tomatoes. Drizzle the reserved dressing over the asparagus and tomatoes; sprinkle with dill. Serve warm or at room temperature.
