Want to get fancy with your veggies? This asparagus wreath is an easy way to impress your guests, or just your family. I love making my food look fun (kids are more likely to eat fun food). Even our dog loved the leftovers.

I remember the first time I ate asparagus. It was at a family friend’s house. Our family had been invited for dinner and they served asparagus (among other things, I only remember the asparagus). I think I must have been between 6 and 8 years old. I don’t know why I had never had it before, especially since my mom was a vegetarian. Anyway, I learned that night that I love asparagus. Why my mom kept making lima beans instead of asparagus is a mystery to me.

We love asparagus over here (who doesn’t love a food that makes your pee smell funny;) I had fun making this asparagus wreath and with only a few ingredients, I think you’ll have fun too!
