"Here's one of my very favorite recipes for that first early-spring asparagus," writes Marie Hattrup from Sparks, Nevada. "Stir-frying keeps the texture crisp but tender; lemon and soy sauce make for a light tasty coating, and the toasted almonds add a flavorful crunch."

This dish is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had some leftover from a salad I made the night before, and this was the perfect way to use it up.
