Remove the steamer from the heat and let the asparagus cool. Combine the yogurt and blue cheese in a small saucepan. Warm over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes, whisking constantly, just until the blue cheese has melted. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the lemon juice, chives and garlic. Arrange the asparagus in the centrer of a serving plate and ring with the tomato wedges. Drizzle the yogurt dressing over the asparagus. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and garnish with the fennel.
