Asparagus!

I love asparagus.  It's also one of the many things on my husband's do not eat list.  Nonetheless, when I saw bunches of them at the entrance of our grocery store, I grabbed a nice looking bunch.  I made them last night, alongside a tasty but not very photogenic meal from Cook's Country magazine, and served them to the boys and me.

Astonishingly, I didn't have any regular lemons on hand, but did have some Meyer lemons around, so I used them.

This was so simple, so light and fresh and delicious.

Boil 2 bunches asparagus 4 to 5 minutes; drain. Mix 1/2 cup chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon each lemon zest and juice, 1 minced garlic clove, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and top with the parsley mixture.
