Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 bunch (~ 1 lb) asparagus, tough ends cut or snapped off
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp e.v. olive oil
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta - optional as garnish

Instruction

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil.
  • Snap off and/or peel the bottom inch of each stalk (if needed) to remove any tough ends.
  • Add salt to boiling water and add asparagus.  Reduce heat to a simmer and cook 2-4 minutes depending on thickness or to desired tenderness.
  • Drain asparagus and spot dry with paper towels (the drier the asparagus is the easier it will be for the oil to stick to it).
  • In a bowl, toss asparagus with olive oil and a touch of salt and pepper. 
  • Top with crumbled feta and add salt to taste.  Happy Eating!  Beckie
