Delightful combination! My asparagus were very skinny and I do like them crunchy so I did not preboil them. I put the butter, mustard and mushrooms on the skillet heated the mushrooms through and then added damp asparagus, cooked for 3 minutes stirred them twice and they were perfect. Had a picky eater for dinner and they disappeared from her plate in a hurry Thanks TGirl,RN for a very good recipe

Delicious — my new favorite way to make asparagus. I used the skinny asparagus for this dish, cooking it about half the time indicated and it was just perfect with steak and baked potatoes. Thanks for sharing! This is a keeper for sure.

Delicious and Flavorful! I love the flavor the Dijon added to the asparagus! So very simple to prepare such a delightful side dish. I do love asparagus and and mushrooms (a great combination, I might add!) and will definitely keep this recipe handy for future use! Thanks TGirl!

Excellent! The mustard and garlic are the perfect offset for the asparagus and the mushrooms add color and texture. I brought the water to a boil before adding the asparagus. While the asparagus was draining, I melted the butter and mixed in the mustard and garlic before adding the asparagus and mushrooms.I did not add the salt or pepper. You could add an additional 1/2 pound of aspapagus for the amount of sauce made by the recipe. Thanks TGirl for this special dish!

Agree with Ellie2, perfect side dish with sirloin steaks for dinner today. The mustard in the sauce enhanced the meat! Since we like asparagus barely tender I did not add it until the mushrooms/sauce mixture was done, it was perfect! A keeper!!

This is a wonderful new way to fix asparagus. We enjoyed ever bite. I am glad to see some new ways to fix this vegetable.

Like another reviewer, I used thin asparagus and skipped the first boiling as dh likes his veggies crunchy. Halved the asparagus and shrooms but kept the sauce ingredients the same, except to go a bit heavy on the dijon, since I love it! Easy to toss together in the skillet while getting the rest of dinner finished off and on the table.

This was wonderful. Be careful how long you boil the asparagus. The first time I made this, it was soggy. The second time, I cut the boil time to about 1/3, and the dish turned out beautiful.
