Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot of cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
Cut the asparagus into 2-inch pieces and blanch in boiling water for 1-2 minutes until just tender and bright green. Transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking, then drain and set aside.
Thinly slice the radishes and green onions. Roughly chop the parsley and dill.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the asparagus, radishes, and green onions to the potatoes. Gently toss to combine.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley and dill over the top and gently fold into the salad.
Serve the salad at room temperature or chilled. Enjoy!
