Easy it 5 minutes grilled or roasted A recipe for asparagus There is a short list of ingredients and an even shorter cooking time, but this is our kids’ favorite addition!
Remember how I used to be picky? Well, right after our first daughter was born we moved to California. California is beautiful, the weather is amazing (we lived in San Diego) and they have amazing produce. And that’s great, unless you’re me and you do not really care about all these weird vegetables. Remember, this is the old self, the new self will devour vegetables faster than anything else. Anyway, we had dinner at my sister-in-law’s house and I was informed that she was making a very easy recipe for grilled lemon, asparagus and pepper …
Then, then, dvvvvvvvvv! How the hell would I get out of this ?! We all planned to have dinner together in the backyard for God’s sake !!!! Wait, there was a dog. I can definitely slip one for a dog. No, I already felt cunning and knew I could not pretend I was eating something and feed it to the dog without feeling terrible guilt. I had to suck it. And find it I did, and it was good. It was really good. And so began my vegetable journey. That day I learned that grilled asparagus is bomb.com and since then I have converted my mom (did you hear we Mormons like to convert people right? Laughs, laughs.) Who always said that asparagus is like a disgusting herb that grows by an old ditch. And now she even loves it. Shame, baby!
