I'm not sure how I feel about the lemon-butter sauce. I'm not a big fan of lemon.

The asparagus was a bit tough, even though I cooked it for the recommended amount of time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time.

This orzo with asparagus dish was a hit with my family! The asparagus was perfectly tender and flavorful, and the orzo was cooked to perfection. The lemon-butter sauce was the perfect finishing touch, adding a bright and tangy flavor.
