Perfect Oven Roasted Asparagus



 

Perfect Oven Roasted Asparagus

Perfect Oven Roasted Asparagus

Asparagus is so yummy and I’m so happy to see beautiful fresh asparagus coming into my local grocery store. One of my favorite ways to prepare asparagus is to toss it in olive oil, sprinkle it with salt and pepper and roast it to perfection in the oven.

The recipe and directions are so simple and bring out the natural delicious flavor of the asparagus without any fancy frills.

A simple and perfect way to prepare and enjoy asparagus! The amount of olive oil, salt and pepper will depend on how much asparagus you are cooking.

  3. Place cleaned asparagus in baking dish or on a cookie sheet
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and toss until each piece is coated.
