Asparagus for lazybones




Asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables. Trouble is I really don’t like peeling spears. Suddenly all those peelings spread all over the kitchen, so I just wash asparagus before steaming. If spears ends seem to be very hard and woody just bend them until they break. They snap exactly where woody part ends.

Ingredients
1 bunch of fresh asparagus
Half cup of chopped side bacon or ham
Half cup of shredded Gouda cheese  you can use every melting cheese)
Half cup of fresh, chopped parsley
water
Salt, pepper- optional

You will also need non stick skillet and steam pan set or steamer

Bring water to boil in a steam pan set or steamer. If you’re using steam pan set, it should be filled to halfway point. Place asparagus and steam until tender. It takes approximately 7 minutes for thin spears and 12 minutes for thicker. In this same time preheat skilled on medium heat and cook bacon/ham until crispy. Remember about stirring. Place hot asparagus on the plate. Sprinkle it with bacon/ham, cheese, parsley and serve straightaway.
