Asparagus and Herb Pashtida
A pashtida is an Israeli savory quiche-like casserole, usually crustless and often filled with a mixture of vegetables and cheese, sometimes meat. Pencil-sized asparagus works best, but if only fatter spears are available, cut them in half lengthwise so they cook quickly and have good distribution in the baking dish. Serve the pashtida warm or at room temperature with a leafy salad for a light but complete meal.

Tip
Don’t forget to trim the tough bottoms off the asparagus spears. Also, don’t forget to grease the baking dish with 1 tablespoon olive oil to help ensure the pashtida will not stick when slices are removed for serving.

Asparagus ad Herb Pashtida
Awesome because I am overrun by aparagus this time of year and this was easy and quick. I added a dollop of sundried tomato pesto on top!

Delicious and so easy!
Perfect use for fresh asparagus. It made a wonderful supper after a long day and the leftovers will make an equally wonderful breakfast.

Easy and delicious!
Taking advantage of asparagus season, I've made this 3 times. Served with fresh fruit, it is wonderful as breakfast, lunch or a quick supper. This was my first pashtida, but it won't be my last. There are lots of variations out there.
