I have a heap of asparagus,what can I do with them?!
Answers:
Lucky You!!!! It's the favorite veg in this house!
My family loves it roasted! Toss it with some olive oil salt and pepper maybe some red pepper flakes too and roast at 350 for about 10 minutes!
also tasty cut pieces to about 2" lengths wrap in a piece of bacon thread on a skewer and grill! (Disneyland does this and it's the best food in the place!!.!.!.It's much cheaper to do at home!)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Roasted Asparagus with scrambled eggs
3/4 pound fresh asparagus
Good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/8 cup freshly grated Parmesan
6 extra-large eggs
3 tablespoons half-and-half
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, divided

Break off the tough ends of the asparagus and, if they're thick, peel them!. Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely!. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper!. Roast the asparagus for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender but still crisp!. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese melts!.
While the asparagus is roasting, whisk the eggs in a bowl with the half-and-half, and salt and pepper, to taste!. Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet!.

Check for seasoning, salt and pepper, if needed, and serve with the roasted asparagus and 7-grain bread

My favorite is shake them in a ziplock bag with olive oil (after you trim the tough ends off if they are thick) Then lay them out on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with sesame seeds!. Broil about 10 minutes until tender and seeds toasted!. Easy and so good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
