This is a wonderful recipe. We loved all the different tastes; a bit of cheese in this bite, a bit of almond in this bite, and on. I did use a shallot in place of onion because it was handy. Will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing. Made for Best of 2013 tag.

Right up our alley! So simple, and so delicious! Did you not hear me: DELICIOUS and SO SIMPLE! We served this as a side to Recipe#11642 #11642, and that is about as easy as it could get! LOVED THIS DINNER! Made for Best of 2013, per advice from FLKeysJen

Nice fusion recipe. I used shallots and Meyer lemon for standard lemon. This was yummy over a bed of plain short grain brown rice. An omelet was our main dish and this complemented it well. Made for Best of 2013.

For lemon lovers...lemony goodness with fresh juice and zest! I used red onion and the purple/green combo is beautiful. Easy to prepare and 100x better than plain asparagus.
