Growing up with three brothers,and being the youngest child,"I spent time in the kitchen helping Mom",and we ate many simple but satisfying meals. She loved it and taught me to make it, and I have loved it since then. I always remember her when I make it.

How To Make asparagus on toast

Step 1

Cut off the bottom hard part of the asparagus, about 1 & 1/2 inches;wash thoroughly.

Step 2

Place in round baking dish, add about half a cup of water, cover with plastic wrap and vent at side.
Step 3

Microwave just a few minutes, perhaps three to start, and test for crispness. It should be bright green and still a bit crunchy.
Step 4

Carefully uncover, and remove from water, and place on top of buttered toast. Add salt and pepper as desired. It's so comforting and good!
