An addictive and refreshing dip. Great on crackers, flatbread, or veggies!

My guests absolutely loved this! It was so easy to make. I used an ice bath to keep the asparagus bright green before pulsing and served with Rosemary Raisin Crisps from Trader Joe’s. This would be good with artichokes, also.
