Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch of Asparagus
  • 1 Lemon sliced into pieces
  • 1 Tbs EVOO
  • 1/8 tsp ground Sea Salt
  • 1/8 tsp ground Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • Rinse Asparagus and cut roughly 1/2 inch off of the bottom stem.
  • Add to large roasting dish or baking sheet leaving a little space in between each one.
  • Place the lemon slices on top of Asparagus.
  • Drizzle Olive Oil over Asparagus.
  • Sprinkle with Salt and Pepper.
  • Bake until tender or crunchy depending upon your preference, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • At about 10 minutes the Asparagus is cooked and has a slight crunch, which is how I prefer it. The longer you cook it, the more softer it gets. It tends to get a little stringy when cooked longer.
