Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh asparagus spears

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ¼ teaspoon salt-free seasoning blend

  • 3 tablespoons finely shredded Parmesan cheese

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Meanwhile, snap off and discard woody bases from asparagus spears. If desired, scrape off scales. Place asparagus in a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Drizzle with oil, tossing gently to coat. Spread in a single layer. Sprinkle with seasoning blend.

  2. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Transfer to a serving platter; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
