I will admit my husband did not try this dish. There are way to many vegetables for him. He decided the leftovers sounded good. However, my kids loved it. My daughter and I tried a similar dish at CRT a few months ago. I figured I would try to replicate the dish. The original dish did not have asparagus but I figured I would add some. My daughter said it was her favorite vegetable of all. My son liked the summer squash the best. I liked the servings of vegetables my children were eating. Now, how to get my husband to eat more vegetables is the hard part.
