Delicious Roasted Asparagus

When I was a kid we ate brocolli, green beans, and corn. I had no idea what asparagus was, except maybe from a Veggie Tales cartoon =)
As I’ve gotten older and decided to try new things, asparagus has become one of my favorite veggies. They are usually a pretty quick fix, and I can throw them on the grill, sautee them, or roast them and they always turn out delicious.
Check out this great roasted asparagus recipe and let me know what you think!

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Rinse and trim off the hard ends of the asparagus. Toss with 5 Tbsp of olive oil, 1 Tbsp of salt and 1/2 tsp of pepper.

Arrange in a single layer on baking sheet. Roast for about 20 minutes or until they are tender.  Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese or squeeze some lemon juice over them while still hot.
