There are different varieties of asparagus which are great to grill or roast and go well on a salad, mixed in with eggs, or in a stir fry. Asparagus is easy to overcook, so Jenn shares how she prepares her asparagus. Jenn also discusses why asparagus pee can be so fragrant to some people and not to others. Tune in to learn different ways you can add asparagus to your plate! Like what you're hearing?
