Ingredients

1 pound asparagus fresh, cut into 1" lengths, 2 cups
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons yogurt, low-fat
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 medium tomato seeded and chopped (1 cup)
2 tablespoons scallions, spring or green onions sliced
1 teaspoon cumin ground
1 each garlic clove minced
1/2 teaspoon oregano dried
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

Combine asparagus and water in a 2-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat to medium-low. Simmer 8-10 minutes, or until asparagus is tender. Rinse with cold water; drain. Blot asparagus with paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Combine asparagus, yogurt and lemon juice in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. In a medium mixing bowl, combine asparagus mixture and remaining ingredients.

Chill, if desired. Serve with raw veggies or tortilla chips.

Fresh Coconut Cake

Absolutely fabulous! We added one can of pineapple to the frosting that was between the two layers and it was out of this world. Needs to be bigger. Recommend making 3 layers or making a double sheet cake out of it. It will go fast!
