1 shallot, finely chopped
-
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces

6 large eggs

1 cup biscuit/baking mix

1.

Add mushrooms and shallot to drippings; cook and stir over medium-high heat until tender, 6-8 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, place steamer basket over 1 in. of water.
