  1. I enjoyed this! I used an orange-rhubarb marmalade that I got at the farmers market, and pecans instead of hazlenuts. Quick but impressive. Thank you!
     
  2. Delicious! My boyfriend and I made this tonight. Normally we just roast it with sea salt--which is also lovely--but this was a nice twist. I loved the marmalade flavor in it! Thanks!
     
  3. What a lovely-tasting dish! I can attest that it works well to add 1/2 lb of random veggies- say, cauliflower- because I realized I only had 1 lb asparagus! Can't wait to taste the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Thanks!
     
  4. I'm not big on asparagus, but when it's dressed up like this, I could be happy! The spears I bought at the Farmers' Market were very tender & with the flavor combo of orange, ginger & garlic ~ OUTSTANDING! Thanks much for sharing!
