Brown Sugar Asparagus

Stephanie Gallagher
One way to make vegetables like asparagus more appealing to kids is simply by making them taste good. In this brown sugar asparagus recipe, I do that by cooking the asparagus in a brown sugar and butter syrup. Mmmmm!

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 to 2 lbs. fresh asparagus
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 Tbsp. brown sugar

Preparation:

  1. Wash asparagus and trim off woody ends. Cut into 2-inch chunks.

  2. Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add brown sugar. Stir until dissolved.

  3. Add asparagus. Cook, stirring frequently, until asparagus is tender, 5-8 minutes.
