Asparagus is wonderful! And I just got a bunch with my Bountiful Basket on Saturday. I’ll try this recipe tonight!
What a deal on asparagus…I never see better than $1.99 a pound! I always cook mine the same way..and it is delicious!
Yummo! I love all three items so this is definitely something I’ll try when the price drops.
Seems like asparagus is in season now … and foods in season are both the cheapest and most fresh/delicious!
