Asparagus and Mushrooms

Anytime I find something with a few simple no cal ingredients I jump on the chance to make it. Asparagus and mushrooms…with a little ethnic flare….delicious!

Source: Taste of Home, Diet Comfort Food Cookbook
Ingredients: Serves 4

1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tsp ground ginger
2 Tbl canola oil
3 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp pepper

In a large skillet, sauté asparagus and ginger in oil for 2-3 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Add the mushrooms, salt, sugar and pepper. Cook and stir 2-3 minutes longer or until mushrooms are tender.

*I used: fresh ginger, a “bunch” of asparagus that you buy in the store, one container of sliced mushrooms and only 2 tsp canola oil.
*Next time: I might try sesame oil to bump the ethnic flavor.

Great!!!
