This recipe came from Ina Garten of the Barefoot Contessa — she is all about quick and simple but wonderful and fresh food. This is so easy, it has become my standard for preparing asparagus!

    This was awesome! We had guests for dinner and EVERYONE — even my picky 13 year-old who "hates" asparagus tried it and loved it. I followed the other reviewer's suggestion and just put a little olive oil, regular salt and pepper in a bowl and kind of rolled each asparagus into this, and it came out great. DEFINITELY the way I will cook asparagus from now on!

    Outstanding! I forgot to add the cheese (accidentally) - it was still great. I also used some lemon pepper in addition to the black as I did not have any lemon wedges! I served it with ham on Easter. I had two guests who said they had previously only like asparagus fried - but they loved this and ate quite a bit.

    I added some lemon pepper before adding the cheese. The result was a delicious veggie that was really enjoyed by all. Thanks CarolAnn!
