If you’re looking for a spring vegetable beyond the typical peas and carrots, asparagus might be what you’re after. This thick, woody-stemmed veggie is described as having a mild, earthy, slightly buttery flavor that pairs well with seafood, chicken, and dairy. It also contains several essential vitamins and minerals, including Vitamins A and K, folate, and potassium. Though fairly common in Asian stir-fry and upscale American restaurants, asparagus is still considered a delicacy in parts of the world.

This asparagus casserole combines crisp, fresh veggie stalks with tangy grass-fed cheddar, milk, and creamy Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Mayo for a luxurious dish that earns a star spot on any spring plate. These silky textures are topped with browned, gluten-free bread crumbs for a lightly crispy bite. If you don’t want to use gluten-free breadcrumbs, you can swap them for keto-friendly parmesan cheese crisps crushed into small pieces, and sprinkled on after the casserole comes out of the oven.
