Chef Deb's comments:
"I use fresh asparagus and don't use the peppers. (Husband) John
needs a more tender
cut of meat so I pre-slice it and marinate it in a plastic freezer bag. I
also use a mix of greens. I think that sunflower seeds would be good.
Be
sure and boil the marinade. I have used catsup and Heinz 57 instead of the
A-1 both have been good. To cut the sodium, maybe a low salt catsup would
work. I like the asparagus hot so I don't cool mine. I have also served
this
over hot cooked fresh spinach instead of the field greens."
