My favorite cooking blog is Heidi Swanson’s 101 Cookbooks. Tonight we tried the Tasty Asparagus recipe, and it was so, so good, plus nutritious, and easy to make. The recipe calls for brown rice, but we used whole grain orzo pasta, which tasted great, and is faster to cook. The tahini dressing is delicious, and the sauteeing and steaming is just right to bring out the flavor of the chickpeas and asparagus. The toasted almonds add a lovely crunch. The perfect recipe for wonderful spring asparagus!
