RealAge-effect ingredients:
Asparagus, olive oil (potassium, healthy fats, folic acid)
Ingredients:
• 1 pound asparagus, rinsed, dried, and trimmed
• 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt, to taste
• A pinch each thyme, oregano, basil, and black pepper
• Diced tomato (optional)
Preparation:
Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Toss the asparagus in a 9×13-inch baking dish or a shallow 3-quart casserole with the olive oil, kosher salt, thyme, oregano, basil, and black pepper. Arrange asparagus in a single layer in the dish. Bake uncovered 12 to 13 minutes for thin asparagus or 15 to 18 minutes for thick asparagus, or until crisp-tender. Garnish with tomato, if desired.
Tip:
When adding the herbs, crush them between your fingers to increase their flavor.
