Trying something New

My little girl is 6 years old. We have had many discussions about eating and trying new things......

She has been telling me for several months now that she wants to try asparagus!

This is not one of my favorite veggies but I tried to be encouraging! I told her we would have asparagus sometime!

SO a couple of nights ago I fixed asparagus for us!

It was pretty good! I really liked it! My daughter "said" she liked it too, but she only ate about 2 bites of it! But that's OK! I always encourage her to try NEW things!!

I went online and found this recipe for asparagus,,,,,,it sounded like something I might like! I changed it a little bit. I cant find the recipe now, but I can remember how I made it!



It was BAKED Asparagus.

First I broke of the very ends of each stalk,,,,,,the part that was kind of white.

Then I boiled the asparagus in salt water.

Then I put the asparagus in a baking dish and poured a little bit of ranch dressing on it and tossed it just so the asparagus would be lightly covered with the dressing.

Then I topped it with a little bit of shredded Mozzarella and little bit of shredded Cheddar. Then I crumbled some Ritz crackers over the top of all that. Bake it at 350 degrees for about 15-20 min. or until the cheese is melted and bubbly!



It was very good, I WAS IMPRESSED!!!!
