Ingredients
- 1 bunch of fresh asparagus
- 4 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, whole wheat, you name it!)
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh lemon juice (a squeeze goes a long way!)
- Optional: Parmesan cheese or any cheese that melts your heart
Instructions
- First off, give the asparagus a little love. Trim the ends, rinse them, and get ready to steam them until they’re tender yet still have a delightful crunch. We’re going for the perfect texture here, folks!
- While the asparagus is steaming, let’s toast that bread! You want it crispy but not so crispy that it could double as a weapon. Use a toaster or a skillet to achieve your desired level of crunch.
- In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream and olive oil. Heat it gently, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly. Add salt and pepper to taste. If you’re feeling extra fancy, toss in that cheese now and let it melt into cheesy goodness.
- Once the asparagus is perfectly steamed, lay those green beauties atop your crispy toast. Drizzle or ladle on that creamy sauce like you’re an artist finishing a masterpiece. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top will brighten flavors—because who doesn’t love a little zest in their life?
- Serve warm and watch your guests swoon. You might even hear the clinking of forks and knives as they dig in. Don’t forget to grab your own slice before it all disappears!
This dish isn’t just a meal; it’s a celebration of flavor, color, and the sheer joy of eating well. Perfect for impressing friends or to treat yourself after a long week. Enjoy!
