BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS Food Exchanges per serving: 1 VEGETABLE EXCHANGE Nancy O'Brion's Notes: The Asparagus and Carrots made 1/3 cup per 1 person...you could have a free salad also. This was very taste....even a family member that don't like cooked carrots, like these cook carrots. Also we just nuked in the mircowave stove for about 10 minutes. The lemon juice and the lemon pepper really did make a nice change for us. (are tryig hard to cut back on the fat.) Used fresh asparagus. Yield: 6 servings |
