Sometimes I really enjoy asparagus (drizzled with cream sauce) and sometimes I really do not (scrambled with eggs!) I wanted to branch out and try a new method of preparing asparagus. I am happy to say it was a success. I steamed the asparagus just a little too long, so keep a close eye on it.

1 large bunch asparagus, cut into 1″-2″ pieces after removing tough ends
Juice of 1 orange
2 t minced garlic
2 T soy sauce

Steam asparagus for 5 minutes, and drain. Toss with orange juice, minced garlic, and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Drain prior to serving.
