simply roasted asparagus
I promise this is not a cheap way out of a blog post, I just honestly love roasted asparagus and it is a dish I make often. And simple, simple, simple.
The thinner the asparagus the less fibrous they are when you cook them. Chop about an inch off the bottoms to get rid of the hard stuff.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Add some fresh cracked pepper and sea salt and toss around to cover asparagus well.
Roast and here you have it. So good…

Hi Tabatha! I’m getting ready to go make this to go with dinner. I have some frozen organic asparagus so I hope that will work. I think I will also sprinkle some nutritional yeast over them after they come out of the oven…yum!!
Let me know how the asparagus came out Karielyn! Curious about the frozen asparagus!
