Easy Asparagus Recipes for Any Occasion
Spring heralds the arrival of asparagus—a veggie that’s not just a side dish but a main event in its own right. With its slender stalks and vibrant tips, fresh asparagus packs a punch of vitamin C, potassium, and a touch of calcium, making every bite a nutritious delight. Toss it on a grill for an Easter brunch. Its crispy texture when roasted and its ability to absorb flavors like olive oil and lemon juice make it a favorite. Lay them in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they roast evenly to perfection. From sautéed asparagus adorned with fresh garlic and feta to a creamy asparagus risotto bursting with lemon zest and fresh herbs, our HelloFresh recipes promise to impress.
HelloFresh Tip
Forget the knife. Bend asparagus stalks until they naturally break to ditch the tough part and keep all the tenderness.
