Recipes Side Dish Vegetables Asparagus Cold Asparagus with Prosciutto and Lemon 4.5 (15) 12 Reviews 6 Photos This cold asparagus appetizer or side dish is tender, tasty, and easy to create. The zesty lemon and salty prosciutto work perfectly together to add wonderful flavor and great presentation to a vegetable that many are cautious to try. I have had people who normally turn their noses up at asparagus thoroughly enjoy this dish.
