1. 1
   To make the cilantro dressing: To a blender, add the olive oil, yogurt, garlic clove, lemon juice, cilantro leaves and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides, as needed. Give it a taste and adjust the salt and pepper to your liking.

   To make the remainder of the salad: Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus, horizontally. In a large bowl, combine the shaved asparagus, spinach leaves and sunflower seeds. Pour in the dressing and toss until evenly coated. Divide amongst bowls or plates and add sliced eggs. If you have any leftover dressing, it will keep for up to 3 days in the fridge.
