Asparagus Sesame Stir-fry

This is quite possibly the best combination of super-easy and super-delicious. I'm excited that this turned out so well. You should try it next time you get your hands on some asparagus...

Ingredients
2-4 cloves garlic, sliced
1/2 small yellow onion, sliced
~15 stalks asparagus, trimmed & cut into pieces
1 head broccoli florets
A few crimini mushrooms, sliced
~4 leaves lacinato kale, de-stemmed & torn into pieces
Soy sauce
2 Tbsp. olive oil
Sesame oil
Rice!

Heat the olive oil & garlic over medium-high heat.
After a couple minutes, add the onion and cook till onion starts to look transparent.
Lower heat to medium and add  asparagus, broccoli,  & 1 Tbsp. soy sauce and cook for a few minutes.
Drizzle about 1 Tbsp. sesame oil onto your veggies.
Add mushrooms & kale and continue to cool til they're soft (or to your liking).
Serve over cooked rice
Add  an extra drizzle of soy sauce if you're feelin' salty!

The asparagus and sesame oil pair fantastically.
