As I said in my last post, we’ve been eating a lot of asparagus, so I thought I’d share a few ideas with you! here’s just a few and I’d love to hear how you like to prep your asparagus!

1. Grilled in the oven with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper. No cover, just flat out on a tray and roasted at 375 for about 15- 30 minutes.
2. Steamed, served with lemon!
3. Steamed or roasted and served with a shaving of parmesan.
4. BBQ in a foil pack with olive oil and salt and pepper!
5. Wrapped in prosciutto. Take 5 or 6 spears, wrap a slice of prosciutto around them and roast in the oven as above.
6. Stir fried with shrimp and served over pasta tossed with olive oil or butter and parmesan cheese.
7.  Cream of asparagus soup! follow any of my cream soup recipes subbing the asparagus for the said veggie(broc or caul.)
8. In a stir fry with portabella mushrooms, onion and yellow peppers and some chicken strips. Serve with rice, dinner!
9. In a quiche!
10. Asparagus A la cashews! Stir fried with cashews, garlic and ginger. top with soy sauce and sesame oil!

There you have it, ten ways to serve asparagus! Go forth and pee green!
