    This is a workhorse of a recipe (and I mean that in a good way. I blanche and shock the vegetables as soon as I get home from the market, per the recipe, and then divvy it up, as there are only two of us. The first batch I might dress as Ina does here. The second batch will find its way into risotto. The third I might toss with a lemon vinaigrette and serve cold. Or stir fry.

    Fabulous -- so easy because you can blanch the vegetables ahead of time and then saute them just before serving. Great way to cook broccoli rabe, as well.

    I took this to a large family dinner with great success. I doubled the recipe as we had a crowd. Did all the prep at home, bagged up the ingredients and warmed it up at the party. Received plenty of compliments as well as a request for the recipe. It's a healthy and interesting combo of veggies. Will make this again.

    We never even like asparagus before, but just love it in this dish. The flavors are so subtle, it is just heavenly!!!

    I made this last night and it was excellent. Fresh, fresh, fresh, new, baby, what ever you want to call your vegetables that's what they need to be for this recipe. If they are this recipe is excellent. Sugar snap peas cook quickly so watch the cooking time.

    Wonderful flavors. sauteed shallots several hours before dinner and placed the vegetables in a zip lock bag with a tablespoon of butter and microwaved on high for 3 minutes. They retain the bright green color this way and can be done in advance. Then tossed with the reheated shallots before serving. Sooooo easy and everyone enjoyed.

    This recipe was so good, I shared it with a stranger in the check-out line at the grocery store. It's so easy to make, I remembered the recipe after having only cooked it once.
