Young, tender asparagus is a spring harvested crop, so make sure you are ready with a bunch of recipes for when it is in season! Asparagus and tomato with gremolata makes for a wonderful side dish or appetizer next to any Paleo protein, while roasted asparagus with salt and pepper is as simple as it gets. Asparagus soup though, that is truly the way to go.
