My family gets together a LOT to eat – it’s just what we do!
Because of that we are always on the hunt for awesome recipes to try out.
Awhile back, actually it was a year ago, my mom found this next recipe and made it for me when I just had Evie. The hubby and I LOVED it!! I mean, LOVED it! It was seriously so good and since then we have made it several times more because it’s the perfect side to any meal. Here is how you can make this yummy Asparagus and Tater Toss Recipe from Sunny Anderson as well…

‘Tis the season for it. Our favorite asparagus preparation lately has been grilled. Your recipe would also be really good with grilled asparagus and potatoes. For us, I’d do something besides bacon, maybe toasted nuts and a little smoked paprika instead..

Mmmmm, your version sounds delish!!
Asparagus has been used as a vegetable and medicine, owing to its delicate flavour, diuretic properties, and more. It is pictured as an offering on an Egyptian frieze dating to 3000 BC. Still in ancient times, it was known in Syria and in Spain. Greeks and Romans ate it fresh when in season and dried the vegetable for use in winter; Romans would even freeze it high in the Alps, for the Feast of Epicurus. Emperor Augustus reserved the “Asparagus Fleet” for hauling the vegetable, and coined the expression “faster than cooking asparagus” for quick action.`
