Nutritional values
Broccoli is brimming with secondary plant compounds such as glucosinolates (sulphur compounds) and beta-carotene, which can render cell-harming free radicals harmless. In addition, cabbage provides a lot of defensive vitamin C and a good portion of calcium.
If you're trying to limit your red meat intake, you can always use turkey instead of ham.

Preparation steps
Rinse asparagus, peel stalks thoroughly and cut off woody ends. Cut spears into pieces (about 1 inch long). Spread in a baking dish.
Rinse broccoli and separate into florets. Peel carrot and cut into slices.
Cut ham into small dice.
Heat the sunflower oil in a pot. Sauté broccoli and carrots until tender while stirring.
Pour in 1 cup water and the vegetable broth.
Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in sour cream and diced ham and spread over the asparagus.
Chop the bread in a mini processor until fine crumbs and place in a small bowl. Squeeze out lemon juice and mix 2 tablespoons juice with the crumbs along with the pine nuts.
Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over the asparagus and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F/convection 350°F until golden brown, about 30 minutes.
