Marinated Asparagus

It’s asparagus season and it doesn’t last long so get them while you can. Asparagus contains a beautiful fiber named inulin and it helps nourish your microbiome. If there is one thing you want to focus on to get to your optimal health levels, it’s working on your gut microbiome.

A bunch of asparagus (lightly steamed)
1 teaspoon dijon
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic (minced)
salt and pepper to taste

Method
Lightly steam your asparagus and make sure they still have a crisp to them, it probably takes 2 minutes to steam these babies. Place them in a cold water bath after they have been steamed to retain their colour.

Make your marinade in a small bowl and toss the asparagus with it. Let sit for a couple of hrs if possible and enjoy.
These babies will last in the fridge for a good 4-5 days no problemo.
