I think I might make myself sick on this....I ate almost the whole dish by myself. Hey Jude...thank you so much for this great recipe. I'm the only one in my family that likes asparagus, so I won't have to share with them! The flavors all compliment each other very well. This is a keeper and I will be making it again!
