    Fire salt roasted asparagus

    coat asparagus with a little olive oil and season with fire salt then roast them in a 400 degree oven till they are done to your liking (roughly 20 minutes give or take)



    side note, I get all my spices from www.myspicesage.com. They are reasonably priced and always fresh, unlike the stuff you get from the store. If anything give the website a look and see what kind of seasonings you could put on your asparagus and build from there.

    Lightly spray asparagus with cooking spray, I use Pam
    Toss on plate to get spray evenly coated, spread on baking
    sheet and sprinkle reduced sodium Mccormicks season salt
    garlic powder and black pepper. Or substitute the season salt
    with red pepper flakes.
    bake at 400 for about 20 mintes or til desired texture.

    I love asparagus as well. My favorite way is roasted until crispy with just a bit of sea salt. I also like it with a balsamic reduction or with some fresh shredded asiago cheese. When i feel like cheating a bit i love wrapping it in a bit of proscuitto and baking it :)

    I live in a huge Asparagus area, so we eat it ALL THE TIME.

    Here we spice it with:

    parsley
    fry it with a little lavender
    never forget lemon and a little sugar in the boiling water
    Most people eat it with a little butter and boiled ham

    I am all for trying all sorts of different herbs and spices and eventually you will find something you totally like. :D

    Stir fried with a tad of Black Bean sauce.

    This one works a treat!! And you don't need to use oil unless you really want too!! http://www.food.com/recipe/asparagus-black-bean-sauce-stir-fry-367657

    I saute it in a pan with a little Greek salad dressing, no additional oil needed because there's oil in the dressing already. It ends up a little garlicky, lemony, herby. yum

    We love asparagus! We drizzle olive oil on it then sprinkle Cavendar's Greek Seasoning on it. Then we grill or broil it. DELISH!

    a bit of olive oil, kosher salt & pepper, roast at 400 till desired doneness, and right after you pull them out of the oven, top them with some grated parmesan cheese. the cheese melts perfectly, which of course makes it addicting.
