Nutritional values

The green asparagus tastes particularly delicious when cooked au gratin with ham; the ham, together with the cheese, also provides plenty of protein for muscle building and maintenance. Green asparagus contains the B-vitamin folic acid, which is needed for blood formation and cell division and renewal.

The green asparagus with ham also tastes good as a low-carb variety! You can either leave out the potatoes and serve more asparagus. Or you can replace the potatoes with cauliflower.
