I adapted this recipe from one I saw on TV and my husband loved it! I like to serve this spread on oven-toasted Tuscan pane bread, first spread with a thin layer of cream or goat cheese, as a light lunch. Enjoy!

The asparagus in this spread is cooked perfectly. It's still slightly crunchy, but it's not too soft.
