HOW TO MAKE OVEN-ROASTED ASPARAGUS

How do you feel about New Year’s resolutions? I usually don’t make any (officially). But over the last few months, I set tiny goals and added vegetables to our empty nest table. When I stumbled on asparagus stems next to the Brussels sprouts I decided I needed to add this vegetable to my veggie rotation. This oven-roasted asparagus recipe was easy enough for me!

OVEN-ROASTED ASPARAGUS RECIPE

Oh, and it’s so easy! I know right? I always looked at asparagus as the fancy vegetable that came as a side at restaurants with carpet and upholstered dining chairs.

This recipe is easy you likely won’t need a recipe. Of course, I just screwed up a two-ingredient recipe. But here you go just in case you cook like me.

STEPS

Preheat oven to 425
Spray the baking sheet with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil
Rinse the asparagus stems. I know this is obvious, but cooks like me need the obvious stated.
Cut off about an inch off the ends of the stems
Drizzle asparagus with olive oil
Season with salt and pepper.
Bake at 425 for 12- 15 minutes until tender.
