Garlic Shrimp With Asparagus And Lemon

    I never edit a recipe the first time I try it; that said, this is one that's excellent as it is. I just recently came off of a 72 hour long fast and finally built up enough stamina to give this a go and it was INCREDIBLY good. The lemon and the pepper mingle together REALLY nicely in the sauce. Very light, INCREDIBLY potent flavors. Great recipe!
