    I make this same recipe, it is so tasty, except I do it in the oven at 450 degrees Farenheit instead of broiling. - 3/11/10

    This was fantastic. I have tried several ways to make asparagus and this was by far the tastiest and easiest. WIll make again and again! My hubby and kids hated asparagus until this one, I knocked it out of the ballpark with this recipe! - 2/16/10
