Steamed Asparagus with Sauce

A few years ago I bought some asparagus, never having tried it before - it's delicious!! Especially local and fresh! This is one of my favorite ways to prepare it.

Steamed Asparagus with Sauce
  • 1/2 pound asparagus
  • 1/4 cup miracle whip
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese

Steam asparagus. Heat and whisk remaining ingredients on stove top. Add steamed asparagus and heat thoroughly.

I have been looking for a godod cheese sause for some time now!! Itried this yesterday with fresh asparagus, so tasty!
I read on preparing asparagus and they recommended trimming the bottom third of the asparagus before cooking. It snaps off quite easily. What a difference that makes, asparagus cooked more evenly than ever before.

I guess I could of mentioned that. Oops. Yes the ends tend to be a little "woody" and easily snap off where the stalk begins to get a little more tender. Glad you enjoyed the recipe. Now I'm hungry for more asparagus!
