If you're like me you spend most of the day trying to think "What's for dinner?". Sometimes I want to try something new or even just remember a good family favorite. I created this blog as a quick and easy way to help jog my memory and to share our family favorites across the web. My sister-in-law Marie and I post some of our most successful recipes with pictures. Bon Appetite!

Roasted Asparagus Bundles


My friend Kathy showed me how to cook asparagus this way.

1 lb Asparagus
EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
salt and pepper
1 bunch green onions

Wash asparagus and green onions. Peel the first layer off of green onion then trim the root part. Trim about 1 inch off the cut part of the asparagus. Arrange the veggies on a cookie sheet, single layer. Sprinkle EVOO and salt and pepper. Place in the oven at 400* 15 minutes or until you can pierce the asparagus with a fork. Let cool just a bit. Take the roasted onions and lay horizontal, then add 4 spears of asparagus on top vertically and carefully tie a knot around to make a bunch.

*TIP* I arranged the bunches around this platter with a deli roasted chicken to give it a more homemade feel.
