Really fabulous. I had a pile of old, woody asparagus (it's not exactly asparagus season here right now!). But with this lovely sauce on it, who could tell? My only problem is that it didn't turn out to be a sauce — it was more the consistency of cream cheese. That may well have been my fault — and even if it wasn't, I don't care, because the flavor was so good. Thanks so much for posting this!

    To die for. This treatment of asparagus is simply outstanding. I will be using the sauce on other vegetables! The "mouth-feel" is unctuous and the flavor savory and full. Nonetheless, the taste of the asparagus comes shining through. Terrific dish!

    Very addictive! Creamy rich! I didn`t have asparagus so I used Broccoli. For a better appearance I wouldn`t add the bacon to the sauce, I would use it as a topping over the sauce.

    Excellent recipe for one of our favorite vegetables. I didn't have any goat cheese on hand and instead subbed a couple of wedges of Laughing Cow cheese. The flavor of the creamy sauce blended well with the asparagus and bacon. I followed Rita's suggestion to just crumble the bacon on top. Perfect.
