Hannah's Roasted Asparagus

SAVE ✓ SAVED ADD TO MEAL PLAN PRINT

"Whenever I go to my grandparents' house for dinner, there is a bundle of asparagus waiting for me to prepare for the family meal. Roasting asparagus brings out all of its best flavors and it is my favorite vegetable! I even own a shirt with asparagus on it. If you're not already a fan of asparagus, you're sure to be after you try it this way!" - Hannah, Dr. Yum Team Member

Method

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Snap the tough ends off of each aspargus spear at the natural break. Arrange asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Use tongs or your hands to make sure oil and seasonings are evenly dispersed. Rearrange spears so they are all flat on the baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, turning with tongs halfway through.
