Mom's Asparagus


This recipe is one of my favorite vegetable recipes. It's simple and so easy. I've made it many times, and people who say they do not like asparagus end up saying that they do if it's prepared like this! Credit to my mom who taught me how to make it.


Ingredients
1 bundle asparagus (the thicker the stalk, the better)
4 cloves of garlic, minced
Olive oil
Lawry's seasoning salt
Black pepper


Directions
1. Break off the ends of the asparagus and discard.
2. Shave the asparagus stalks with a vegetable peeler. This ensures that the asparagus is very tender by removing the tough outer layer.
3. Place in a small baking dish.


4. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with Lawry's and pepper to desired amount.
5. Sprinkle minced garlic over top.


6. Place under your oven's broiler and broil until the asparagus is tender, flipping the stalks once to ensure that they heat evenly.
