CREAMED ASPARAGUS ON TOAST
My mom made this when I was a kid. My wife makes it for me often. It's easy and delicious. I am not a big fan of asparagus prepared any other way. I like to pour over one slice of toast, add another on top, and then pour more over it.

An elegant side dish made from fresh asparagus spears and homemade sauce (no canned soup). Adapted from "Best of the Best of Georgia." If you are using green asparagus, you will only need to peel the bigger stalks; if using white asparagus, definitely peel them all.
