Asparagus is packed with fiber, folate, glutathione, calcium, iron, vitamins A, C, and a lot more. It is also an anti-carcinogen and antioxidant! On that note, this wonder food also makes a great and  nutritious side dish to nearly any meal! It isn’t difficult to choose the best ones to cook. Check for firm asparagus stalks with firm dark green or purplish tips. Make sure that the bottom of the spears are not dried up. If they are, that means they’re not that fresh anymore. You can enjoy asparagus with nothing more than a drizzle of  olive oil but you can also cook asparagus in many different ways. Here are 3 super easy asparagus recipes you can try at home.
