Lovely! I made chicken with this. It Would go great with fish! Summer cooking! Light, fresh, delicious! I added a bit of powdered garlic, but otherwise followed the recipe.

Made as recipe calls and added sautéed chicken breasts. Enjoyed it thoroughly and will definitely make it again.

very good, took another reviewers suggestion and sauted the asparagus in the garlic butter with garlic powder in addition to the fresh. I also added a generous splash of white wine. I fear it may have been a bit bland if I hadn't done that.

Excellent! Loved it!...only thing I did different is I sauteed the asparagus in the butter after seasoning it with garlic powder and pepper then added to the pot. Did not boil it at all. Def added more cheese but who doesnt! Yummm
Will make again and again!

Delicious! Could handle less cheese and still taste good if watching that kind of thing. I made it with cauliflower and broccoli instead of asparagus. Some tomatoes might be nice for color. My son thought the lemon flavor was a bit too strong, but I used lot. I really liked it!

Delicious and quick. We subbed cauliflower because my daughter isn’t a fan of asparagus. You could probably use any vegetable

I added chicken for some protein. It was pretty good—didn’t blow my mind but hit the spot! Super easy too.

Added a bit of frozen spinach with the asparagus but otherwise followed recipe. It was super simple and delicious!
