Asparagus Roundup

Asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables and with the season in full swing now I have been doing a lot with it. Both last week and this week I came home with no less than 4 bunches of asparagus! While I take a break from posting about my adventures with asparagus last week and before I start cooking up the asparagus that I picked up this morning, I thought that I would take a moment to share some of my favorite asparagus recipes with you. Asparagus is so versatile and you can do so much with it that I am sort of glad that there is a fairly long period of time from when the asparagus shows up in spring until summers produce starts to flood in so that I have the time to fully enjoy it.

Nothing beats the simplicity of Asparagus with a Poached Egg in Hollandaise Sauce! The lemon buttery hollandaise sauce goes perfectly with the juicy asparagus.

For someone totally addicted to grilled cheese sandwiches this Asparagus Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a must make every spring when asparagus is in season!

Another quick and easy dish that is just packed with flavour, this Asparagus Carbonara will not fail to impress!

Smoked Salmon Asparagus Quinoa Cake Eggs Benedict are a great way to enjoy a long weekend brunch!

Who says asparagus is not for breakfast? These Asparagus Huevos Rancheros are a satisfying and tasty way to do breakfasts in spring.

Artichokes are also in season when asparagus is and the combination of the two of them is amazing in this Asparagus and Baby Artichoke Quinoa Salad.

Asparagus works really well in pesto and this Asparagus Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a great way to show it off!

This Asparagus and Gruyere Tart only takes a few minutes to whip up and it it is sure to leave people talking, and craving seconds!

You really cannot go wrong smothering asparagus in cheese like in this Asparagus Gratin.
