Fresh Asparagus With Lemon Herb Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This is excellent, but time-consuming. We used 1.25 cups of green onions and 1/3 cup regular onion instead of shallots. We also used 1.5 T Dijon mustard and 1 T fresh lemon juice. We added 1/2 cup diced red bell peppers with the 1/4 cup of green onions sprinkled over the dish at the end.
