I made this recipe as stated and found it to be a nice way to eat asparagus. We don't normally like it. Thanks for sharing!

These were delicious. I used 1/2 pound of asparagus and egg white. Ate them as finger food while waiting for the rest of dinner to finish. These would be good dipped in ranch or blue cheese dressing.
