An incredibly simple yet delicious guilt-free dish, perfect for a light meal.
Ingredients
Directions
- Snap the woody stems off the asparagus spears by hand (then trim in necessary). Cook asparagus until tender (by boiling or steaming).
- While your asparagus is cooking, boil the eggs.
- Leave both the eggs and asparagus to cook. In the mean time, melt the margarine (use butter if you prefer).
- Once finished cooking, blot the asparagus on a paper towel to remove some moisture then arrange on a plate.
- Remove boiled eggs from pot, cool briefly in some cold water (makes it easier to peel off the shell) then chop and place on top of the asparagus.
- Drizzle the melted margarine over the top of your dish, then grate/shave a little parmesan (or other cheese, but a hard Italian cheese works best with the flavor of the asparagus) and crack some black pepper over the top.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!

Awesome - I like my asparagus roasted - just toss it in olive oil and stick it under the broiler for a few minutes.

Made this for breakfast this morning and it was delicious. I loved how the parmesan works with the eggs and asparagus.
