This is a fun, healthy, quick & delicious recipe for asparagus.  I love it when I get to squeeze limes!  This is a feel-good recipe, so get some music going & let’s cook!

Ingredients:

  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (Do extra virgin if you can)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 minced shallots
  • 1 bunch asparagus spears, washed & trimmed
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • Salt & pepper to taste, of course

What’s Next:

In a large skillet, melt your butter over medium heat.  Add olive oil.

Stir in garlic & shallots, cook for 2 - 3 minutes (dance to the music while you stir & wait).

Stir in asparagus spears, cook until tender (generally about 5 - 7 minutes, keep dancing).

Pour lime over hot asparagus and season with salt & pepper.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Eat well & laugh often!
