      Just tried it, very good! I also added a little bit of bacon bits at the end and mixed it up. Thanks so much!

    can I cook corn on the cob on the grill and if so do I use tin foil and how long do I gook it

      it’s better to microwave corn on the cob. Spread butter on the corn cob, add sea salt and pepper, wrap the corn in wax paper and place in the microwave for 4 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes then enjoy!

    Yes, grill asparagus for 6-7 minutes or until desired tenderness at 375

    This sounds good. I’m hoping it will chill well and be as tasty. (I need to prepare in advance for a buffet and thought chilled asparagus would be a good idea.)

    Corn on the cob in the microwave for 3 minutes. Leave the husk on the cob better than wax paper. Trim the ends with the hair though.

    This was delicious! My first time cooking asparagus-and won’t be the last. It was a little heavy on the salt for me (but that’s because 99% of the time I don’t add ANY salt to my food)-that’s the only thing I’d change. I’m even thinking about doing this same thing with the green beans in my fridge.

      Green beans are great with olive oil & fresh thyme

    Should the butter be melted before it goes in the bag with the rest of the ingredients.
