Just as I'm typing this I'm thinking Darn I wish I had a photo of the finished product!
This is such and easy do ahead recipe that is so impressive. If you're into easy entertaining. This is for you! 
This looks beautiful on the plates. :)
Marinated Asparagus Salad
2 lbs fresh asparagus, cleaned and cooked to crisp tender. Plung into cold water to stop the cooking. Drain and place in a large ziplock bag.
Marinade: 1/3 cup each sugar & salad oil, 2/3 c white wine vinegar, salt & pepper. Chop 1/2 red bell pepper and 1/2 medium onion.
Mix sugar, oil and vinegar well together. Pour into ziplock bag over the asparagus. Add remaining vegetables. Place in a dish in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Turn bag occasionally.
To serve, lay large soft lettuce leaves on individual plates. Lift asparagus out of bag and place over the lettuce. Spoon some onion and pepper over the asparagus. For an added touch you can mix 3 TBSP of the marinade with 1/3 cup each mayo and sour cream and a dash of dill weed. Mix well and put a dollop on the top of each.
ENJOY!!

Thanks Connie! This resembles another recipe I have for chopped veggie salad (sans asparagus). Never thought to try with asparagus. Thanks for posting!
I just made an artichoke, shriimp, rice salad that was similar, it was yummy!
Wendy - I'd be interested in any other types of veggies this way.
Cindy - Yum. I love artichokes and shrimp. I need to try and put that together!
Connie, Don't forget to take a picture when you make this yummy dish.
Margaret, If I'm going to do recipes too, now I'll need to keep the camera handy at home! I'll make this over the Holidays and get a picture then. :)
Connie, My little camera goes with me, always in my bag. Last week while attending a lecture(not real estate related) there was an accident in the parking lot. Out of hundreds of people, I was the only one able to photograph. You just never know when you are going to need it for yummy food, a car accident or your next blog.
Margaret - I thought I was doing well because I kept it in the Car!! Now I know it has to be more handy than that too! :) I'm improving. The MeMe's coming next.
This sounds great, thank you for sharing this, wish I had all the ingredients right now.
Heather, it's so easy and looks so nice when you have company. If you have a place to hold the prepared plates, you can do it ahead of time.
