~Emily's Notes:
.:Normal salt works great, as does normal pepper (though I'm sure garlic pepper blend would be good too!)
.:This recipe was surprisingly easy - my 8-year-old sister was able to help me with a lot of it!
.:To coat in Parmesan cheese, I just used a spatula and put them in a shallow bowl with the cheese in it, and tossed and shook them til evenly coated. Then I spread them back on the sheet and popped them in the oven.
.:Nope, we don't get asparagus often, since it's a little more expensive. But I've heard it's easy to grow and harvest! So we will be putting that in our garden this year for sure.
.:I was wondering about alternative oils that would also be good in this...?
.:Be careful not to over-do these. Do it too long and they're limp with no snap to them.
.:My brother and his girlfriend are vegetarians and loved these... my picky little sister and younger brother also loved these... that's saying something when those two parties agree on a green food....
I'm looking for other good asparagus recipes! This one was super easy and DElicious!! (I bet this would be good with okra too...!)
This recipe came from Betty Crocker's website.
Love,
Emily
