These 31 asparagus recipes run the gamut for any time of day and occasion. Make these easy asparagus recipes any time of the year.
Asparagus is one of my favorite green veggies. It’s so good for you too. Asparagus is a great source of folic acid, potassium, fiber, and other vitamins and minerals. Truth be told I love it so much I’ll eat it year-round, but it’s always best when it’s in season. Come spring, I sneak it into my eggs for breakfast, salads for lunch, and pastas or stir-fries for dinner. I can’t get enough of its crisp-tender texture and fresh flavor.
From egg dishes and springy salads to easy dinner dishes, I’m sharing 31 delicious asparagus recipes for any time of day.
