ASPARAGUS ON SALE?!?
Could it be true???
Yes, fellow NOMsters, I and my happy tummy are living proof that it does exist!!
At this point, I guess it goes without saying that I completely adore asparagus. After all, it has the rare quality of being absolutely unique — yet versatile and easily paired with just about anything.
Oh, and did I mention it’s incredibly delicious??
Especially when roasted or steamed until just barely tender.
Add some Kalamatas and Feta into the mix, and I am one happy camper — and a delectably satiated camper at that!
