I followed the recipe exactly and my asparagus turned out mushy. I think I would cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some more salt and pepper.

I'm not sure how I feel about the combination of olives and oranges. I think I would prefer it without the olives.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover oranges. I had some leftover from a fruit salad and this was the perfect way to use them up.
