]]> One of my family’s favorite things to do in the Spring is pick asparagus!  There’s a farm about 10 minutes away from my house that you can go and pick as much asparagus as you want.  You can bring your own bag or they have buckets that you can fill.  My children all just love to grab a bucket and be on their way picking.  You pay by the pound and it is cheaper than buying it at the grocery store, not to mention it just doesn’t get any fresher than this:)  It’s wonderful!

Today I am sharing with you a simple recipe that is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner.  This Egg and Asparagus bake is made with freshly picked asparagus, Swiss and Provolone Cheeses and blended with a hint of garlic.  This would be great served at a brunch with fresh fruit and pastries too.  What is your family’s favorite asparagus recipe?  With all of this asparagus, I would really love to have some great new recipes to try:)
