This recipe is from The Roasted Vegetable by Andrea Chesman.

But first, here is a very short video with instruction on how to trim asparagus before roasting:

3. Arrange the asparagus in a single, uncrowded layer in the pan.

I have been a stay-at-home mom, sometimes helping to supplement the income from within the home. Now I am a stay-at-home grandmother. Jesus Christ has been my guide and keeper and I have found, in all the trials, heartbreaks and good times that He just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter as the years roll by. My future is secure and I look forward to eternity in the presence of my Creator, Redeemer and King.
