for 6-8 minutes or until bright green and tender.
Step 3
When ready to serve, arrange 5 asparagus spears on each plate. Sprinkle

faced cheese sandwich with spears on top. Add the spears to a mixed green
salad or to your favorite pasta, as a filling for ravioli made with won ton
squares, or to your favorite lasagna. Recipe created by Parties That Cook® .
