For Easter dinner we had roasted asparagus and it was so yummy -- I was reminded that it's one of my favorite vegetables. I don't buy it most of the year because it's so pricey. But, this time of year, you can often find it for a good price. If you've never had asparagus roasted, try it -- it's a winner. And asparagus is a nutrition winner too. According to the Michigan Asparagus Board, asparagus is:
Sesame Roasted Asparagus
1½ lbs. asparagus
2 T. olive oil
salt
1½ t. sesame seeds
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Trim ends from asparagus and cut into 2-inch lengths.
Place asparagus in roasting pan; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt.
Toss. Spread evenly in pan.
Roast 10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time.
Add sesame seeds and continue roasting five minutes.
