The local asparagus season is almost here which is great because it’s one of my favourite foods! Asparagus is one of the first vegetables to show up after a long cold winter so I always enjoy its arrival and eating plenty of it! It is a very versatile vegetable that can be used in many different ways from soups to salads, sandwiches, sides, casseroles, etc and I like to experiment with new ways of using it during the brief period before the rest of summers bounty starts to appear. Here are a few of my favourite asparagus recipes and expect a few new ones soon since I just picked up a ton of it at the farmers market!

All look really delicious. I have to try all, but I already have the top list in my mind. Definitely, crispy baked asparagus will be at the top, grilled cheese sandwich, gratin and both eggs benedict also. Guess I need to buy few bunches of asparagus. 🙂
These look DELICIOUS. Sadly I'm one of those people who is very affected by asparagus pee. It makes me reluctant to eat the thing I love ;(
Jiminy, you’ve done it now. Promised hot dogs, potato salad, beans and hummingbird cake for dinner tomorrow (Memorial Day). And I have to figure out which one of these to do for brunch. Arrrrrgh! Perhaps the artichoke & asparagus casserole. I just can’t wait until Tuesday. Thanks a heap. Hope you have a great Memorial Day, too.
I’m a huge fan of asparagus. All these recipes are really irresistible, I can’t stop thinking about making one of them right now and enjoy it. Thanks for this list of asparagus recipes. I’ll make them this week!!
