This was a fantastic side dish, salty, with a strong taste of ginger and the asparagus and mushrooms still had a bit of crunch to them. Definitely a keeper. -
Yum! What's not to love with these ingredients?! Next time I might try some ginger root instead of the ground since I love the stuff. Thanks bmcnichol for a great side dish. Made for PRMR Tag. -
I used 1 tsp of ginger as I was afraid it would be too much and that way it was perfect for our taste. I omitted the salt. It's so yummy. Great side dish. Thanks Bonnette :) Made for PAC Spring 2011 -
This one wasn't for us. We felt the ginger flavor was too overwhelming. Thank you for giving me something new to try. Made for PRMR tag.

Nice ginger flavor. These two veggies go so well together. I did add some crushed garlic and decreased the oil to 1 tbsp. The oil reduction worked out great because the mushrooms release their water, so nothing scorched. Thanx for a great veggie dish! Yum!

I used two teaspoons of grated fresh ginger, sesame oil instead of olive oil, and dark brown sugar.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have two boys Eddie 18 and Brandon 10. I have been with my hubby for 16 years. I work full time outside the home and my boys keep me busy at home. Eddie is a singer and base guitar player in a band and Brandon races go karts. We also have a Collie/Beagle mix named Sugar.
I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes.
I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes.
I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things.
I collect cookbooks and recipes in general. I usually start with a recipe and tweak to my families liking.
My Rating System:
5 Stars = The whole family enjoyed the dish and it will be added to my TNT cookbook. Book #220911. These recipes will be made again and again.
4 Stars = Recipe was good, but needed some modifications or it was good but not something we would want on a regular basis. Also goes into my TNT-4 star recipe cookbook. Book #220912
3 Stars = It was edible, but won't be made again.
2 Stars = Needs some kind of major adjustments.
1 Stars = Inedible, didn't work, waste of ingredients.
