Oh asparagus, I adore thee.
When spring comes around, my heart leaps at the sight of your arrival. I love roasting you and enjoying you simply with a runny egg and parmesan cheese for a lazy dinner. I can’t get enough of you in salads, especially when you’re blanched, and laying beside potatoes and salmon, dressed in a mustardy vinaigrette. You’re particularly delightful baked into a fluffy quiche or folded into a delicate omelet. When tossed in pasta, you’re exquisite, and when pureed into a creamy soup, you embody the essence of spring. You’re so fresh, so green, so tender. And I will eat you up all spring and summer long.
If any of you out there share my sentiments on asparagus, you may want to investigate every recipe we’ve gathered for youbelow. From a clever (and healthier) take on fries, to one of the most colorful and festive spring salads you’ve ever laid eyes on, you’ll see asparagus in a variety of forms. Our motto this season is, when in doubt, put some asparagus in it.
Happy spring, and happy asparagus-ing!

What disappoints me about this article is that you did not include your own (and my favorite) asparagus recipe – chicken and asparagus stir fry!
