Prep 5 min
Total 15 min
Ingredients 6
Servings 4

One of my favorite seasonal vegetables is asparagus. These delicious veggies cook in a jiffy and only need a few ingredients to highlight their flavor. I prefer cooking them in the oven because they remain crunchy, and I can cook them while I set the table. This recipe includes one of my favorite vinaigrettes-balsamic-which has the perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. I hope you like it. MORE + LESS -
