Roasted Asparagus

This is one I found on Food Network's website a long time ago. It was super simple and went something like this.

Ingredients

1 pound asparagus, trimmed

1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Snap or cut the dry stem ends off each asparagus and place on a heavy baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss. Roast until the asparagus is tender, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm or at room temperature.

I was using garden asparagus, and it wasn't as thick and they weren't all the same size. So some of ours got crispy, like in the picture. But honestly, I kinda liked it. Made them kinda taste like french fries. I'm sure if you used a bunch from the store they'd all cook up real uniform though.
