Here’s a simple and tasty way to make cheesy asparagus:
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch of asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan work well)
- Optional: garlic powder, lemon zest, or breadcrumbs for extra flavor
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prep asparagus: Wash and trim the tough ends.
- Season: Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder.
- Bake: Spread asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 10–12 minutes, until tender but still slightly crisp.
- Add cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the asparagus and return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese melts and bubbles.
- Serve: Optionally, sprinkle with lemon zest or breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
