Category:	Salad
Number of Servings:	Serves 2
Ingredients:	1/2 pound asparagus 4 eggs, boiled 4 tablespoons homemade mayonnaise (see recipe) Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:	Cut the tough ends (about 1 inch) off asparagus. Place asparagus on a plate and sprinkle with water and a little salt. Microwave on high for 1 minute and check to see if a knife goes through it easily. The asparagus should be bright green and crisp. If not done enough, microwave another minute. The amount of asparagus determines the time needed to microwave. A handful is usually done in 1 minute. Or, drop into boiling salted water for about 1 to 2 minutes. On two salad plates, divide the asparagus, eggs cut into wedges or halves and dot all with mayonnaise. Sprinkle eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
