My wife and I have become addicted to baked asparagus " Fries" we call them. We look for the thinnest spears we can find and sprinkle with olive oil, Mrs Dash seasoning and bake until they are crispy...so good and nice to get a crunch. WE have also wrapped a few spears in bacon and baked until crispy, that was very good as well.

I was craving this very thing one day but didn't have any on hand, but I did have fresh green beans. I roasted them the same way you just described. They were soooo good.

Sounds yummy. What temperature do you bake the spears at and for how long?

Bake on 400, takes at least 30 minutes, varies by size of spears. We like them crispy and star****ching them at about 25 minute mark - we do flip them at 15 minute mark...

I like to steam them, then roll them up in a slice of deli turkey with a sprinkle of cheese. two or three make a meal. But I am going to try the roasted ones. DS
