Asparagus with Balsamic Tomatoes

This is super delicious too! Again all you out of town-ers missed another delicious Easter dinner. (am I rubbing it in your face enough?) WE MISS YOU ALL! COME BACK! 

Here is the link and below is the recipe.



Asparagus with Balsamic Tomatoes
Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4
From: myrecipes.com 

Ingredients:
1 pound asparagus, trimmed
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups halved grape tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation
1. Cook asparagus in boiling water 2-3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes and garlic; cook 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar; cook 3 minutes. Stir in salt. Arrange asparagus on a platter; top with tomato mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and pepper.

Notes:
I got a huge package from Costco and ended up adding lots more garlic, we are talking about @ 4 pounds of asparagus with 2 TBSP of minced garlic and almost 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar. I also used sun-sundried tomato feta cheese. I poured the whole container in since I hate having a little of something left but it was probably a little too much.
