One of my earliest memories of eating asparagus was having someone boil it, over cooking it and wanting me to eat this soft chewy vegetable. Ew. I was turned off by it quickly. I didn't try it again until I was able to actually cook it myself. I always either have the hubby grill it on the barbecue or I put it in the oven. In this case, I made it in the oven.
This is a quick and easy recipe that doesn't take long at all and the turnout is absolutely delicious!
