DAY 23 - LEMONY ASPARAGUS


Asparagus
LEMONY ASPARAGUS
1 bunch of asparagus, cut into thirds
2 T. olive oil
2 T. parmesan cheese
1 t. lemon zest
salt/pepper
First, start a saucepan two-thirds full of water to boil.  Cut the woody stems off the asparagus and discard.  Then cut the asparagus into thirds.  When the water is boiling, put the asparagus in for 2-4 minutes.  (I generally separate the tip of the spears and the stems - then I boil the stems for 2 minutes and add the spears for an additional 1-2 minutes)  Drain and place into your serving bowl.  Add the olive oil, parmesan, lemon zest and salt & pepper.  Toss to coat.  Easy, quick and delicious!
