Now is the time! From now and through June is the best season to eat asparagus here in the USA! I created this recipe and although it takes a few steps, it is well worth the effort!

I would definitely recommend this for a comforting-yet-elegant dinner or even as a side or main dish for Easter!

ENJOY!
