Asiago Roasted Asparagus

I didn't mean to eat this entire tray of asiago roasted asparagus. But I did. K. Don't judge me. At least it was asparagus and not the ultimate Keto fudgy brownies though, but wait...that also sounds good. Those crispy, salty, asparagus tips were too easy to eat one after the other. I didn't even save any for the kids. In the evening, my husband was like "didn't you make asparagus"?

Me: What asparagus?

Aside from this being an easy, healthy, go-to side dish; the best news is that you can totally substitute parmesan if you don't have asiago in the frig. I think most of us have some parm sitting around. So it's all good, use it. Good luck not eating the whole pan though.

INGREDIENTS YOU NEED FOR OVEN ROASTED ASPARAGUS

• Asparagus: Fresh asparagus only.
• Olive Oil: Drizzle it, just a little bit.
• Asiago Cheese: grated. Here's a secret though: you can use parmesan too!
• Salt and Pepper: Flavor bomb status.

HOW TO MAKE THIS PERFECT ASPARAGUS SIDE DISH

1. Trim the asparagus. If you aren't sure where to cut it, try this: bend the asparagus toward the bottom of the stem. Wherever it snaps, is the portion that needs to be cut off. I usually just eyeball it.
2. Lay it out evenly on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
3. Grate the Asiago cheese and sprinkle it evenly on top.
4. Roast it up. Eat the whole pan. Done.

ASIAGO ROASTED ASPARAGUS GOES GREAT WITH:

• 30 Minute Sheet Pan Pesto Chicken
• Pesto Braided Bread
• Parmesan Arugula Salad With Lemon Vinaigrette
• Herb Smothered Garlic Butter Salmon
