I found asparagus on sale at our market and let it sit on the counter for a few days while I tried to figure out what I wanted to do with it. This is what I did with it:
Ingredients
1/2 cup Quinoa, rinsed
1 cup Water
1 lb. Asparagus, rinsed and trimmed
1 tsp. olive oil
2 Tbs. Butter
1 Tbs. Balsamic Vinegar
1 tsp. soy sauce
Salt & Pepper
Bring water, with a pinch of salt, to a boil. Add quinoa and reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. When cooked, remove from heat.
Toss asparagus in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake in an oven-proof pan for 12 minutes or until tender. Brown butter in a heavy bottomed pan. Be careful not to burn, but it should be a golden brown. Add vinegar and soy sauce and simmer until slightly thickened. Poor over cooked asparagus. Top with quinoa and enjoy!
