In a large skillet on medium high heat, melt the butter then add the olive oil and asparagus. Cook for one minute. Add the mushrooms, broth and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Remove the lid and add the cream and cook until it reduces and thickens. Add the parsley, lemon juice and salt & pepper. In a separate pan, fry your egg to your liking and toast the bread. Spread the toasted bread with ricotta cheese, top with asparagus and mushrooms. Put the fried egg on top and drizzle with the cream mixture. Vernonia High School senior Megan Ely has signed to play women’s basketball at Linn-Benton Community College for the 2017-18 season. Ely will be dual enrolled and live in the dorms at Oregon State University in Corvallis while attending most classes at Linn-Benton. Ely is pictured with her mother Susan, Roadrunners Head Coach Debbie Herrold, and her father Jeff. Note – Store asparagus in your refrigerator upright with the stems submerged in water. You trim one at a time by simply holding the stalk with both hands and gently bending, it will naturally snap where the stalk becomes tender.
