thought I would share my families favorite
asparagus recipe. We eat it all the time.

Parmesan and Garlic Asparagus

1/4 c good quality olive oil
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
Heat on low for approximately 30 minutes to infuse the oil.
1 lb or more trimmed asparagus
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese (not the powdered kind)
sea salt
bacon crumbles, optional

Line a jelly roll pan with foil. Place trimmed asparagus in a
single layer. Pour just enough of the oil to coat lightly.
Be sure and include some of the garlic. Sprinkle with
sea salt. Bake in a preheated oven of 425* for around
4 minutes. Top with cheese (& bacon if desired)and
bake an additional 3 minutes or so. Should still be "crisp".
