The Best Friend To Every Meal..Asparagus...

I love to pair a lot of my  meals with Asparagus.. I always search high and low for new ways to make this vegetable. Whether you boil it, grill it, wrap it in bacon, pickle it, I will always love it!

Below is a recipe of my favorite way to prepare this Jolly Green Giant of Vegetables!

Ingredients:
2 pounds Asparagus, tough ends trimmed, rinsed and patted dry
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

In a large glass baking dish, toss the asparagus with the olive oil and garlic.

Season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss.

Bake until the asparagus are tender and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes, depending upon the thickness of the stalks, stirring twice.

Remove from the oven and toss with the lemon juice. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

-- This makes me so hungry just thinking about it!
