Garlic Parmesan Asparagus

Since my feelings towards asparagus have been changing over the years I have been more willing to try them in various recipes. Since I enjoy other vegetables roasted I decided to try roasting asparagus. Turns out it is really good, especially with some parmesan cheese and garlic.

Garlic Parmesan Asparagus

Ingredients:

• 1 pound asparagus
• 4 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400º F.
2. Break or cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears.
3. In a large bowl add the olive oil, garlic, black pepper and asparagus. Toss to coat well.
4. Spread the asparagus out on a large baking sheet and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, turning once.

Enjoy!!!
