You had me at FRIES  -- Am I right?  It doesn't even matter if you're not a fan of asparagus - if you're a fan of FRIES - this recipe is for you.  Swapping out a starchy potato with this deliciously green spring vegetable really makes these a healthy alternative to traditional french fries.

Spring is the perfect time to give these Asparagus fries a try.  This is the season when supermarkets are stocking fresh spears of this sweet and snappy vegetable.  Pick some up on your next trip to the store and give these healthy FRIES a shot.  (Oh and this sauce is ridiculous so don't even think about skipping it.)

I'm not sure whether it was because I wet the asparagus before dipping it in flour or because I made my own bread crumb mixture but this delicious coating really adhered to the asparagus much better than it had in my previous attempts.  I loved these "fries" so much that I gobbled up this entire batch of them for dinner.  Lucky for me - I'm the only asparagus eater in the house.  ;)

Ciao!

This is simply irresistable. I thought I will never be able to eat anything that taste great like this after I switched to a completely plant based diet. I didn't expect my kitchen will now be able to play with a whole new world of amaranthine possibilities. Anything you can do to meat, fish, or chicken can be done to some vegetable alternative, you just need to learn how. Every great chef also took time to master what he knows. Nothing can be achieved overnight. For the mean time, let us enjoy this healthy snack which is easier to make.
