Spring is a delicious time to enjoy asparagus! We love it in so many different dishes, but as a simple side dish, this is our favorite.
Roasted Asparagus
1 lb asparagus, washed and trimmed
1-2 tsp. olive oil
1/8 tsp. each: basil, garlic
sea salt and pepper, to taste
lemon, if desired
Preheat oven to 500. Place asparagus on tinfoil and drizzle olive oil over asparagus.
 |
Roll asparagus in the oil to coat. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, basil and garlic.
 |
 |
Cook asparagus for 5-7 minutes, then flip, and continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes or so until tender.
 |
 |
If desired, take 1-2 slices of lemon and squeeze the juice over the asparagus.

I LOVE all the seasonings on the head of the asparagus -- so tasty!
