Very simple and tasty. I added some garlic powder and onion powder. My asparagus was done at 10 minutes. Thank you!

Loved it! This was so easy, tasty and SUPER time saving! I loved it! I will definitely make this often! The only different thing I did was in addition to a little pepper and salt, also sprinkle it with some garlic pepper. It was DELISH!

This was a hit! Nice flavor combination, and easy. My asparagus was thin, so cut baking time to 15 minutes. Made for Fall 2008 PAC.

Simple but good. Made for Spring PAC 2008. I followed the recipe as written and this was a nice tasty side dish. It was easy to make too.
