Ok, this may sound strange, but it's very good.  I took pictures of how beautiful this looked when it was done, but my pictures got deleted :(  And of course, the food got eaten so I can't take another picture.  Next time I make this, I'll have to come back and add the picture.

I think my mom made this one time. However, she doesn't remember making it.  So if she didn't make it, then I have no explanation of where I got it from.  

Ingredients:
Asparagus
Salt and pepper
Butter (optional)
Strawberries
Sugar in the raw to taste

Steam or cook the asparagus however you like it.  In a food processor blend a small amount of strawberries (maybe 1/4 cup) to make a puree.  Add the puree to about a cup of sliced strawberries along with sugar in the raw.  You don't want it to be overpoweringly sweet.  Just slightly.  Season the asparagus (butter, salt and pepper) and spoon the strawberry mixture on top.

Tonight I made some really delicious food and then I decided I should start a blog!  Ha!!  So here is where it begins...
