My mom made this for a family party. It was a big hit. She did add garlic powder to it.

love this recipe! I have made this twice. I did add a little bit of diced red onion. This is even good warm!

I loved this recipe. I added the juice of one large lemon to give it a bit more flavor and it made it amazing! I look forward to making it again!

I made this as a main dish for two on a very hot day. This is a "I'll bring this to the big picnic" food.

We had this for family last weekend. It was a hit. I added some onion. I also added some fat free sour cream to the light mayonnaise to make more sauce without adding lots of fat calories. Will definitely make as long as asparagus is in season.

I added some red onion and think you could use a little less mayo. But very tasty!
