Roasted Asparagus

Are you looking for a different way to cook your asparagus instead of just steaming it???  I get tired of steaming my vegetables all the time so when I wad talking with a friend one day she mentioned she had roasted asparagus and how delicious it wad.  That got me thinking and I decided  I would try it.

Again, so glad I did because it is SOOOOOO YUMMY and has become a new favorite!

Ingredients:
1lb. Asparagus Spears
1-2tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
Garlic Powder to taste

Directions:
-  Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees.
-  Rinse the asparagus and trim the bottom ends off the asparagus.
-  Spread the asparagus on rimmed baking sheet and drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus.  Then sprinkle the salt, pepper & garlic powder over the asparagus and roll the asparagus around to make sure all the pieces get coated.
-  Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for about 30 minutes or until the asparagus is soft.
-  Remove and enjoy!!!

*If you have leftovers give them it a try cold.  I found I liked the asparagus cold out of the fridge just as much, if not more, than hot.
