Instructions
Trim off the woody ends of the asparagus; chop into pieces and place in a steamer.
Steam for 5-7 minutes until soft and tender, but still a little crisp. You don't want them mushy.
Take off the heat and allow to cool a little.
Stir through the pesto and serve as a side dish to fish, chicken or your favorite meats.
