- Place the pan in a larger baking dish and place on the center oven rack.

- Remove the souffle from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Run a butter knife around the edges of the pan to release the souffle.
- Turn the souffle out onto a cutting board and remove the parchment paper.

I've never made anything like this before so I enjoyed the challenge and new flavors. Hopefully you will enjoy the photos. The souffle is mostly the flavor of the asparagus, but the other vegetables add nice color. I felt like it was something that might be served on a brunch plate along with a scoop of chicken salad and some fresh fruit.
