Even my kids love it when I broil it for a few minutes with evoo and garlic salt. They like it if I cook it a little extra so the asparagus get slightly crispy and they eat them up like french fries!0

You can take the asparagus and drizzle a little bit of olive oil, then season with garlic and onion powder with a little salt and pepper. Rub the asparagus to evenly distribute the seasonings. Either broil or BBQ the asparagus to taste. Keep an eye on them as they will cook fairly quickly. Entirely delicious.0

We eat asparagus quite a bit because of its nutritional value. The way I like it is steamed with some crushed garlic over top, and throw in half a lemon and steam it all together. When its ready squeeze the rest of the lemon out... also works good with spinach and bok choy.... Tip don't over cook your vegetables the more you cook them the more you cook the life and nutrition out of them, leave them a little crisp inside.0
