I roast mine in the oven with some olive oil and lemon pepper. It's yummy.

Oh my gosh - asparagus is so good by itself, either steamed or roasted that I'm seldom tempted to cook it with anything.

I just bend the asparagus and let the stem snap off where it wants to so to speak. I think I saw that tip on a cooking show. It depends on how you like them cooked. I like mine more crunchy so I keep them in for 15-20 mins

Last night, I roasted and tossed with:

1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
1 clove garlic, minced then rubbed into a paste with a hearty pinch of sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Juice and zest of 1 lemon

Sooooo good. A little bit goes a LONG way.

LOVE my asparagus roasted!

I just made the asparagus and barley "risotto" recipe from the WW online recipes...it was yum! But it's a side dish with aspargus in it...not good if you're looking for asparagus to be your side.

I just steam mine. Once cooked, it's good hot or cold. Did you know it's really tasty with a squirt of Dijon mustard?

I also like to pile it on mixed greens & add some roasted red pepper & a sprinkle of goat cheese & a handful of walnuts or almonds.

I just made this as part of my dinner tonight!

Pan-sauteed in a tiny bit of olive oil (less than 1 tbsp) with 1 minced garlic clove, salt and pepper to taste. Cooked for probably 7-8 minutes, just until tender but I like mine on the crunchy side, too!
