With hopes to inspire the collective in helping alleviate the pandemic of food waste, we present this recipe utilizing the asparagus stalk we usually discard during food preparation.   While the branchier parts of the stalks are saved for making stock, the softer parts are used in this recipe to create another easy and flavorful meal.   This recipe is super convenient and only takes 15 mins to make, very delicious and packed with umami goodness from our ABO Miso Soup.   This is best enjoyed with some toast, or croutons, if you have it.   May we all collectively participate in this wonderful and powerful movement for health, nutrition and healing our planet.
