Wow, Loren!! This was just as easy as could be. My family and I love balsamic vinegar and think it is delish on vegetables. I followed your directions which turned out tasty, tender asparagus. Already have plans to make it again this weekend. Thanks.

Enjoyed this simple dish so very much!! Next time will raise temp and perhaps leave in oven a tad longer (may just be personal preference). If price of asparagus will ever go down will have this more often! Thanks for sharing.

Another simple side dish that has minimal prep with outstanding flavor. I did add a little fresh ground black pepper and coarse salt to the asparagus as I tossed it with the olive oil. The balsamic is the perfect finish.

Excellent. For me it is so easy to bake asparagus. It only takes 15 minutes and goes so well with other baked veggies. The balsamic vinegar really does compliment it. I think it would also work really well on a covered Barbie. Thanks LorenLou for a keeper.
