Roast Asparagus with Parmesan

Spring time in New England is prime time for asparagus. We can only get it for a limited time, so I'm loading up while I can.

Ingredients
  • 1 bunch of asparagus
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Coarse salt & fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
  • Balsamic Vinegar
Preheat oven to 450F. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus.
Toss the asparagus with olive oil and salt & pepper. Spread evenly on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle with cheese.
Roast until asparagus is tender and cheese is melted, 10-15min. Add balsamic as needed.

Alternatively, steam the asparagus until tender. Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt & pepper and balsamic.
