Our Oven Roasted Garlic Asparagus
Fresh veggies were always around when I was growing up. From Brussel Sprouts and Green Beans to Broccoli and Asparagus, I did not always love the sides that came with dinner and spent countless hours sitting at the table being told to finish my vegetables. Most of the time the veggies were blanched with a little salt and pepper. When Minda and I got married I would cook veggies the same way, but they always needed a little more. Minda suggested that I put my touch on veggies and wow, we changed how veggies were being made and served in our house. As our son got older, he also asked for veggies and suggested changes. Asparagus was the perfect veggie that I wanted to spruce up and that is how our Oven Roasted Garlic Asparagus became a family favorite that hits the spot every time.
Ingredients, Substitutions, and Additions
Cheese – What can be said about cheese. We love cheese at our house and put it on everything. If you’re looking for a little something extra on top of your Oven Roasted Garlic Asparagus try and add some shaved parmesan or mozzarella in the last five minutes of roasting.
Dry Seasoning – Try and add some of your favorite dry seasoning to your mixture. We like to add a little bit of Italian seasoning or lemon pepper when making our Oven Roasted Garlic Asparagus. We also love adding a little bit of crushed red pepper flakes to add a layer of heat.
Garlic – We use both fresh and jarred garlic. Sometimes it’s just easier and faster to use a couple spoonsful of jarred garlic than mincing fresh garlic.
Toppings – Topping with a balsamic glaze will give a little hint of sweetness and acidity or top with some French-Fried Onions for a little crunch.
