NOTES : Weight Watchers points per serving: 1/2

This sauce is wonderful! Really dresses up the asparagus and makes you feel
like you're eating something sinful. You can begin the sauce even after you
start cooking the asparagus!

This was the highlight of our Easter meal this year! No one could resist
this light, creamy sauce.  It made the entire plate look elegant.  My
thanks go to Taste of Home field editor Cathee Bethel of Lebanon, Oregon,
for recommending it.
