What kind of cheese is good with asparagus?

In this recipe, we use a blend of cheeses. However, you may want to try one of the following Italian cheeses, such as:

• Pecorino Romano
• Parmesan
• Asiago
• Fontina
• Mozzarella

How do I make salmon and asparagus in one pan?  

You’ll want to make sure to bake the salmon and asparagus long enough to cook fully, about 12-15 minutes.

Next, add the cheeses and broil for the last 5ish minutes. This gives the lemons a nice caramelization and melts the cheeses to perfection.

You’ll want to keep a very close eye on the dish for the broiling portion. Enjoy!
