This easy side dish is inspired by my mother-in-love. She makes something similar, and as I set out to make it, I realized I didn’t have nearly all the ingredients that she had…But, I will say it’s just as tasty!

I made this as a side dish for our dinner, but we had leftovers and we mixed it into omelettes at our community group and it was amazing.

The sautéed ginger asparagus is ready in less than 10 minutes, so it cooks up quickly right at the end of your dinner prep. It would also be a great addition to meal prep!

Local Spotlight: Nothing super local today, but I did use a Colorado spice company’s all purpose seasoning that my mom got me for my Gotcha Day! I’m super stoked to use them, I’m sure you’ll be seeing more things with all of them incorporated.

That’s it. Short and sweet today, so that you can get to cooking!

    i usually don’t use asian seasonings for asparagus and idk why (maybe because it’s so good already plain with salt or with olive oil and balsamic?!)). i love ginger (and am the only one who will eat the chunks that get cooked into veggies), so this sounds like it should end up on my table asap (:

      Yes!! The sesame oil isn’t too overpowering and the ginger isn’t either. Just gives it a nice bite!!

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a recipe that moves asparagus in an asian direction and I don’t understand why. This looks absolutely delicious. Will definitely be using this one as soon as asparagus season starts in the North. Thanks!

      I hadn’t either! And I love the slight Asian flavor the sesame oil gives, without being too overpowering!

    Hey cool it has almonds!! I bet that would give it a bit of a crunch too! This sounds so unique and fantastic! I totally can see myself toasting it up and adding it to eggs for breakfast too, thanks for the tip!! 😀
