This recipe creates an impressive vegetarian main dish for brunch, lunch or dinner or a fancy side dish to perk up your meal. I love the combination of flavours and a serving of cottage cheese on the side compliments this nicely. This will make 2 servings as a vegetarian dish or 3-4 servings as a side dish. Ingredients:
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed |
1 onion, roughly chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 (14 ounce) can chopped tomatoes, in tomato sauce |
1/4 teaspoon thyme |
2 ounces mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced |
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Lightly grease a shallow baking dish; Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Steam asparagus until crisp tender; arrange in baking dish.
3. Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil in saucepan until golden.
4. Add tomatoes, salt and thyme; simmer uncovered 15 minutes.
5. Pour sauce over asparagus.
6. Place slices of mozzarella cheese over top.
7. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
8. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.
