35 healthy asparagus recipes
It took me all of four seconds to decide what ingredient/topic to cover for my round-up post for the month of April. I knew it had to be healthy ASPARAGUS recipes of course! Asparagus is the harbinger of spring the universe over. So without a doubt, for a seasonal recipe website, I have no choice but to cover asparagus. Not that I mind! I love asparagus 🙂 I have a few of my own recipes in here and then loads more from my friends for a total of 35 inspired ideas.
I have divided up the recipes into categories so it is easier for you to scan them. First I have main course asparagus recipes with chicken, beef and pork. Then I found a few yummy healthy fish and asparagus recipes. Up next are the Vegetarian Main Courses with Asparagus. Of course I had to include asparagus side dishes. And then there are soups and salads to round the round-up up. Please be sure to pin, share and tweet! And then scroll down and let me know what your favorite way to enjoy asparagus is.
Happy Cooking!

Hi Katie! This is one of the best round-ups I’ve seen, beautifully curated and presented — I can’t wait to grab some asparagus and get cooking! Thanks for including some of my recipes 🙂
Thank you Sue, and I love your two recipes. They look amazing! So glad you came by to see the post.
OMG I want all of these. What a beautiful round-up, Katie – thank you for including my sushi bowls!
Writing this had the same effect on me. We’ve eaten three bunches of asparagus in the last two days alone:)
Well, booyah — thanks for including my soup! An excellent roundup with so many great ideas.
You are so welcome Ninj 😉 Hugs lady!
Delicious recipes! I love asparagus:)
Aww thank you Ilona. I appreciate your reading and leaving a comment.
Gorgeous roundup! I need to find some purple asparagus now!
Thanks so much Samantha. I almost fell over when I saw that purple asparagus. It jumped into my shopping cart!
What a beautiful and inspiring roundup, thank you! And thanks so much for including my Greek style salad! Best, Kimberly
Thank you Kimberly. I love the look of your salad. You take beautiful photos too.
Katie this is the BEST ROUND UP EVER! asparagus is king. Thanks so much for featuring my Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken as well as the Asparagus and Cherry Tomatoes! I think the first one I will try from this list is your tarragon vinaigrette!! I love tarragon with asparagus. Yum. You must have spent so long on this! Great post Katie, it looks fabulous!
Karen, Thank you so much. I am blushing from your compliments. I seriously question my sanity every time I do one of these, but making the collages and finding the recipes is strangely addicting. Lol!! I was thrilled to discover your two beautiful recipes. The chicken dish is top on my list! Must try it!
Mmmm I want to eat ALL the asparagus!
You’re the best Katie, thanks for including my Spring Harvest Buddha Bowl with a Dill + Shallot Vinaigrette. These all look amazing, pinning this now 🙂
XO SHERRIE
Aw shucks. I don’t know about being the best… Thank you so much and for pinning!!
OOoooooh, what a GREAT round-up, Katie! Thanks for including my roasted asparagus, tuna, hard boiled egg sandwiches! Pinning for sure!
I love your recipes Rebecca of course I wanted to include one of them, and I just loved how unusual your sandwich was! Thanks for pinning. Much appreciated;)
My favourite way to eat asparagus is with EVOO, salt and pepper. That’s it. Grilled or roasted. But honestly I’m not a fan of it. Hate me now.:) It dehydrates me and the pee smell…OMG. Sorry. You will block me from your blog I think.:) But lovely round-up for all your asparagus eaters.:) I can see you put in a lot of work into it.:)
Ha ha! Totally laughing out loud! Not blocking. Glad someone said it! This explains why I spent forever trying to figure out why I couldn’t find asparagus recipes on your site yesterday when I was putting this together. 😉
Yep, no. You might find tofu and swiss chard but not asparagus. Thank you for keeping me on a friends list and thinking of me for the roundup.:)
My favorite spring vegetable! Great round up 🙂
Thanks Gina I love your shaved asparagus salad.
Right in my wheelhouse…I’ve been bringing home asparagus from my local farmer here on the Oregon coast. It’s been soup and quiche and the bruschetta so far…asparagus and eggs really does it for me….I see a frittata in my future…
Local asparagus isn’t ready here in Vermont yet. But I will be ready with these recipes when the time comes. I love hearing what you’ve been making Terry!
That sounds great,I need to find some purple asparagus now!
I haven’t seen it very much Kem. The bunch of it that I bought for these photos was such a surprise at the store that I couldn’t help buy buy it 😉
yum Katie, one sounds better than the next!! and 100% pinned your ham & asparagus fritatta, that sounds amazing!
I am so ready for local asparagus now too. Thanks for pinning Christine!
This is amazing!! Love all the asparagus love! Pinning so I can make my way through cooking this list 🙂
