Yummy Aspargus!

I know that I promised more chicken pictures and yes, they are yet to come. I am still having some technical difficulties with getting them onto the computer. Hoping you should have them by tomorrow at the latest.

In the meantime, I would like to share one of our favorite recipes right now! With fresh Aspargus from our garden, we have been finding different ways to fix it and experimenting with it. Here is the best one that we have come up with so far. Hope you try it out! Also, I must tell you my aspargus story. We planted aspargus BK (before kids) twenty years ago. We were able to keep up with it for about a year or two before the kids needed more of us and we saw less of our garden. Over the years, the aspargus plants got uprooted and moved by accident. Who knew that 18 years later, we would have discovered that patch again and be receiving such yummy aspargus to eat! Enjoy!

Baked Aspargus

Cut each aspargus into three portions. In a bowl, combine aspargus, olive oil (enough to coat well) and sea salt. Place in a baking dish and sprinkle with garlic. Sprinkle with bread crumbs (I use a rice crumb coating that I found at Giant) and bake on 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until it is cooked to your liking. Yummy! You can also add basil, parsley, lemon zest, cilantro, etc., when sprinkling on garlic. It is fun to experiment with the different spices/flavorings.
