Sabrina’s Baked Asparagus Recipe

I love preparing this easy veggie recipe in the spring, aka asparagus season. While you can find asparagus in grocery stores year-round, you’ll get the best fresh asparagus between February and June. It only takes a matter of minutes to prep these veggies then they bake for about ten minutes. Baking asparagus gives it a lightly sweet, salty, and earthy taste that makes it a perfect springtime side dish with roasted mains like lamb, chicken, or ham.
