    Roasted at about 400 with garlic and a light sprinkle of sea salt. Only takes about 5 mins and it's delicious.

    I agree! I usually roast them with garlic, caraway seeds and a tiny drizzle of balsamic vinegar

    I drizzle with olive oil, put a lid on the pan and cook it on med heat until it's starting to get flimsy, then I cut up small peices of ham, and sprinkle it all with garlic powder. :heart: :heart: Did this last night!

    Favorite is grilled with EVOO and sea salt, but a quick steam is good too. If you steam it, it only takes like 3 minutes. It should be bright green, if it goes to yellow green its over cooked. If I steam it I try to serve it with a light sauce. My kids like to dip it in honey mustard or italian dressing, and if that makes kids eat asparagus, I'm all for it.

    My favorite way is to roast it on a cookie sheet with drizzled evoo and a little salt and pepper. I've also heard of people adding parmesan cheese, the grated kind.

    To keep the cals really low, I spray the Emeril Lagasse butter spray on the asparagus (no cals) and add garlic and lemon juice.
    bake 350 for 10-15 minutes,
    yummy
