ROASTED ASPARAGUS

SERVES 4

I love asparagus any which way, but this is the best. It is quick, easy and very healthy.

INGREDIENTS

2 pounds asparagus, tough ends removed, rinsed and well drained

3 large cloves garlic, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Preheat oven to 475° F. Place the asparagus in a shallow roasting pan or baking sheet in one layer. Sprinkle with the garlic, salt and pepper. Drizzle with the oil. Roast until tender and lightly browned, about 20 minutes, depending on age and size, turning occasionally with tongs. These may be served immediately or at room temperature.
