Ingredients:
4 fresh asparagus spears |
2 tablespoons chopped onion |
2 tablespoons olive oil |

1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil |

Sauté onion in hot oil over medium heat in a large skillet 30 seconds or until tender. Add garlic and mushrooms, and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Add wine, and cook 2 minutes, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet. Stir in basil, marjoram, thyme, and asparagus. 3. Place tortilla chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spoon 1 teaspoon mushroom mixture onto each tortilla chip; top evenly with cheese. 4. Bake at 375° for 5 minutes or until cheese melts. 5. *Monterey Jack cheese, cut into 16 pieces, may be substituted. |
