Asparagus is great any way (except canned - why would you do that?!). But my favorite way is roasted. It may be yours too after you taste this and see how easy it is to make it.
Roasted Asparagus
1 lb asparagus, trimmed2-3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (it's really important to have the flavor)
Sea salt
Turn broiler on. Toss asparagus with olive oil, making sure each entire spear is covered. Place on baking sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt (to your taste). Place under broiler until asparagus just start to brown, about 7 minutes (varies on size of asparagus). Flip asparagus, place under broiler for another 5-7 minutes, until browned.

This sounds wonderful! Asparagus is one of my favorites too! I cook broccoli this way. I don't know why I didn't ever think to cook asparagus that way too. Thanks.
our favorite is roasted or grilled too. I just love it!
Wow! I've never thought to cook it this way. I'm lame, I know. We usually just do the steam thing (and then I commit probably the worst sin by eating it with a little mayo on the side). I need to give your way a try for sure!
I love roasted asparagus! Simple and easy to make but they taste so good!
I've started to roast all my vegetables too. I find that the vegetable retains more flavour that way.
I just did it with mushrooms.
