    I made mine w/out the onions or bacon bits and added Mrs. Dash in lieu of the salt. It was very delicious! - 5/17/08

    My husband and I are not big fans of asparagus, but I know how healthy it is so we tried this recipe. It was the best asparagus I have had . . . the bacon bits were really good wih it. It was simple to make, and it made just enough for the two of us. - 5/1/08
