Asparagus Snack Squares

SUBMITTED BY: Judy Wagner 

"'We have asparagus almost every day during the short Midwest growing season,' jots Judy Wagner from Chicago, Illinois. 'This quick pizza-like dish is great for a luncheon or a light dinner, or as an appetizer. For variety, you can saute half a pound of sliced fresh mushrooms with the onion and garlic.'"
