To make a delicious lunch with asparagus taking the leading role, you only need a few basic ingredients. You will wrap the green vegetables in delicious pasta and then bake it under a blanket of béchamel sauce. Of course, that's not the end of surprises. The recipe also features dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese.

How to prepare:

Step 1. I start working on the recipe by preparing the sauce. For this purpose, I melt the butter in a pot on the stove, then add peeled and minced garlic cloves. I also don't forget about the flour.

Step 2. I thoroughly mix the mixture in the pot to create a uniform consistency. After a while, I add milk and bring the whole thing to a boil.

Of course, this is not the end of working on the homemade sauce. After removing the pot from the stove, I add two eggs to the mix. Don't forget a pinch of salt, and the sauce is ready!

Step 3. Next, I prepare a form (10.6 inches x 7.9 inches) in which I plan to prepare the future lunch. I spread olive oil at its bottom, then take green asparagus and insert one piece into a raw pasta tube. In the end, the asparagus and pasta land in the form.

Step 4. The vegetable-pasta construction is doused with creamy béchamel. To the form, I also add pieces of dried tomatoes and aged Parmesan.

The form with its contents is covered with aluminum foil and placed in a preheated oven for 20 minutes. The oven at this time should operate at a temperature of 392 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 5. Baked asparagus with additives is served right after being removed from the oven. Additionally, I decorate it with fresh parsley. And that's all, bon appétit!
