You can't beat fresh asparagus over the canned, although my husband loves the canned! I think I may have put too much olive oil on the asparagus as it was a little soggy - not crisp like I had thought it would be - you know like the kind you get in restaurants! But the taste was by far better than out of the can! Also, my husband wanted me to add a little garlic to the oil next time! :)

Very yummy recipe. I added some minced garlic and sprinkled a little salt on top too. This is an easy dish to cook in a toaster oven.

Simple and oh so good!!! I never ate asparagus as a kid (mom boiled them to death) but I cook these all the time. I love the char and the cheese! Thanks for the posting!
