While I’m so sad to see #BrunchWeek end, I am excited to share my favorite recipe of this year’s #BrunchWeek with you. I have a recipe that I have been obsessing over for some time. I first saw the Barefoot Contessa make these baked blintzes on a show of hers eons ago and it was filed in that “I’ll get to it” memory bank where I have a slew of recipes mentally bookmarked. However when BrunchWeek comes around, I always want a showstopper recipe or two like my Chile Relleno Quiche, Croque Madame Muffins, Mexican Chocolate French Toast with Spiced Blackberry Syrup, or my favorite Cheesy Breakfast Burgers. This recipe is definitely a weekend brunch showstopper. These Lemon Blintzes with Summer Berry Compote are so easy to make but will have your family and friends swooning at first bite….

I am so excited that we are kicking off #BrunchWeek today. It is one of my favorite community blogger events and this is my 4th year getting a chance to play with some of my favorite food bloggers. Who doesn’t love brunch, right? This year’s #BrunchWeek has some new sponsors including Michigan Asparagus. So, to kick it off, I knew I wanted to incorporate some delicious spring asparagus in my recipe. To go with, I wanted to also make sure to add a bit of cheese (my fridge is packed with Cabot cheese for days – I love using it in recipes). I was marinating on ideas for brunch that I haven’t tried here before and I have been obsessed with the flavors of spinach and artichoke lately. I thought – what if we take that combo and add some crisp spring asparagus and sharp cheddar cheese and bake it in a perfect breakfast casserole. A few tinkerings with this recipe and this Spinach Artichoke and Asparagus Strata is ready for the #BrunchWeek brunch table. …
