Everyone always has recipe ideas for the main course, but people have yet to offer any advice on what to make to accompany it. You need a tasty side dish to complete your dinner.
TikTok user @millennialmomskitchen has a recipe for caesar asparagus that will solve all your problems. It’s like a neat alternative to the classic caesar salad.
The best part about this recipe is that it consists of simple ingredients that are easy to find at any grocery store. And do I even need to state the obvious? It’s absolutely delicious!
Ingredients:
- A pound of asparagus
- Cherry tomatoes
- Caesar dressing
- Croutons
- One lemon
- Black pepper and salt
- Shaved parmesan cheese
Directions:
Start by lining the asparagus on a baking sheet covered with foil. Then, cut the cherry tomatoes in half and arrange the halves along the sides of the tray.
Spray everything with cooking spray and season the veggies with salt and black pepper. Next, bake them in the oven for eight minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Scoop the asparagus and tomatoes onto a serving plate. Drizzle the asparagus with caesar dressing, then sprinkle croutons on top. There’s nothing wrong with using store-bought dressing and croutons. It only makes the preparation go lightning-fast. Plus, it still tastes like it’s made entirely from scratch.
The last step is adding lemon zest and shaved parmesan over the asparagus. You can serve this dish hot, cold, or at room temperature!
The crunchy element that the croutons bring to the table, combined with the crispy, juicy vegetable and creamy sauce, just create a mix of flavors that explode in your mouth.
Furthermore, this side dish is essentially a salad of sorts. And salad equals healthy in my book, which means you can go all out with dessert. That’s a surefire way to impress your date!
