Have you ever tried roasting your veggies?

I am fairly new at this method of cooking vegetables and I love it! It is so simple. There are very few ingredients, and it just seems to bring out such a good flavor in whatever you are cooking. You will have to try roasted brussel sprouts as well. YUM, YUM!

Here is a recipe for roasted asparagus that my family enjoys and I hope you will too.
