My Famous Asparagus

While other people may have been snacking on junk food on a friday night, we were snacking on grilled asparagus. This is my go to recipe for making asparagus. I usually stick it under the broiler to achieve the charred grilled like texture, but this time I used my on the counter grill. This is simply one of the best appliances that I have in my kitchen. It's a 3 in one, grill- griddle- panini press. I seriously use it almost every day, so for $100 it was a smart, time saving investment. Especially in the summer when you don't want to turn on the oven or don't have a stand up grill outside.

INGREDIENTS:

• Asparagus
• Olive oil
• Parm cheese
• Minced Garlic

Combine about 3 table spoons of each along with the asparagus in a large ziplock bag. Shake it up to coat the asparagus with all of the goodness. Stick it on a hot grill or under the broiler in the oven- Keep an eye on it and rotate it a few times to get a nice char all around. If you're doing it under a broiler keep a good eye on it as to not to let it burn.



This is a really flavorful easy way to cook asparagus. We literally just ate it as a snack. The combination of the parm cheese, and garlic on the grill is a no fail way to cook this sometime bland vegetable.
