Sauteed Asparagus and Snap Peas
"SO simple, so yummy, so quick! I like to cook the veggies almost underdone so they are tender, yet still very crunchy. Because of so few ingredients, you must use good quality olive oil. Believe me, I skimp on fancy schmancy ingredients elsewhere when I cook, but for this, bring out that good bottle!"

Simple easy recipe - The result is a lovely crisp vegetable that adds color to your plate and flavor to the meal. I used no oil on the pan - just a spray of canola oil and they roasted nicely. I am glad that there are some lovely photos already on the recipe because I am sorry Liza mine just didn't work. Thanks for all your efforts on our behalf and for this lovely recipe -
The snap peas and asparagus are a great combination in this simple yet tasty vegetable side dish. My family really enjoyed it. And I think everyone should try it! -
This were ready in a "snap" They were easy to prepare. I had never thought of the combination of these two recipes, but enjoyed it.
