Asparagus
Asparagus is a spring vegetable prized for its tender spears and mild, grassy flavor; it appears across European and Asian cuisines and is commonly steamed, roasted, grilled or added to salads and stir-fries. It is very low in energy and provides a notable amount of vitamin K (101µg per 100g), along with fiber, folate and some plant protein. Nutritionally it’s a nutrient-dense side vegetable—high in fibre and micronutrients with a favorable fat profile and good protein quality—making it a useful choice for bone health, blood clotting and general nutrient variety in meals.
