New Every Morning: Asparagus You Won't Turn Down

Asparagus You Won't Turn Down

Until about 3 years ago, I turned my nose up at the thought of asparagus. Now I can't get enough! If you've never been a fan, give this recipe a try. Now is the time to do it because it is in season and fairly well priced.

1. Rinse stems and cut off tough bottoms (usually about an inch).

2. Place in a Ziploc bag with 2Tbs olive oil and 1Tbs Herbes de Provence and shake vigorously. If you don't have a Savory spice shop ~~I feel very sorry for you~~ no worries, you can make your own seasoning. If you click on the photo above, you can see the ingredients on the bag.

3. Place on a large cookie sheet and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
4. Place under the broiler --or on the grill-- for 5-8min.

Enjoy!
