Simple horseradish cream sauce
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup store bought horseradish (refrigerated in jar)
- 2 TBS chopped fresh chives
- salt and pepper to taste
Whisk all ingredients in a bowl and keep refrigerated until serving.
Holiday Asparagus Bundles
- One bunch of asparagus trimmed to remove any of the tough stalk
Steam or saute asparagus in light olive oil or butter until tender but not soft. Season lightly with salt if desired. Take a roasted red pepper and slice to make a thin strip. Like a ribbon, wrap red pepper around a serving size bundle of cooked asparagus and place on plate with beef tenderloin and stuffed shrimp ( for a surf and turf option) with a dollop of horseradish cream. Makes a festive holiday presentation 🎄
