Oven Roasted Asparagus Recipe

This Oven Roasted Asparagus recipe is elegant, delicious and so easy to make! The asparagus is perfectly crisp-tender and tossed with fresh lemon juice and topped with grated parmesan. It’s wonderful plain of course, but I tossed it with lemon zest and juice for a pop of flavor, then topped it with grated parmesan to take it over the top. This is an exciting side dish that makes people want to eat their veggies. It’s a versatile, healthy side dish that’s downright addictive!
