Beef and Asparagus Meal for Two

This recipe for Asparagus Beef has quickly become a family favorite.  It is filling and really healthy!

It is made with fresh ingredients and it can be put together in 30 mins! Who doesn’t want a quick meal that tastes so good?

It is not very expensive to make either. It is very easy to make any time of year if you blanch and freeze the asparagus you get on sale. I can get asparagus for as little as $.99 a pound and freeze it for most of the year until we use it.
