Asparagus is one of our favorite vegetables and it's always a good time when it's in season. One delicious way to make them is a la Ina Garten in Barefoot Contessa Cooks Family Style. They're roasted and then sprinkled with parmaggiano to make them special. Served en masse on a big platter, they would be fantastic on a buffet.

Man, those look fantastic. I can't wait to get my hands on some locally grown asparagus at the market and some good Parmesan.
Hi Lisa, our Farmer's Market does not start until late May, so I have a while to wait for local asparagus. I think these were from Cal. They were medium size, which I think hold up better for roasting than the skinnies.
I agree. The thicker ones are better for roasting -- nice and "meaty."
