Your meal sounds very healthy and yummy, Gina

As for your request regarding asparagus, we just love grilled asparagus, and have it often. I prepare the asparagus, then put it in cold water until DH is ready to grill it. He puts it om the grill, over medium-high heat, and turns it fairly frequently for about 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the stalks. When we eat it, we sprinkle it with a little salt and pepper, and Meyer Lemon olive oil. It's simple but good.
