Asparagus season always has me looking for new ways to eat it. This is simple and very good. Trim off the woody ends of a bunch or whatever you plan to eat. Put 1-3 T. of olive oil in the bottom of a cookie sheet or small baking pan. (depending on how much you are going to cook) Grate fine 1-2 cloves of garlic into the pan. Arrange the asparagus in a single layer in the pan and roll around in the oil until it is all covered nicely. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over the bunch. Broil on high for 3 minutes and toss a little with a spatula to turn as best you can. Broil for 3 more minutes. Check for desired crispness. Some stalks are larger and need more time. Turn off the oven, remove to a plate and sprinkle generously with coarse grated Parmesan. Put back into the warm oven until melted and serve as soon as possible.

Mmmm! We'll have to try this!
We tried it and loved it! I wonder what other vegetables you could roast.
