Nothing fancy, just delicious. Serve this alongside just about anything, and savor summer while it lasts!

1 pound fresh asparagus*                         $4.00

1/4 cup grated parmesan                         $0.50

2 tablespoons olive oil                              $0.20

salt and pepper to taste                             $free-ish

Total Cost =     $4.70

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Lay washed, raw asparagus on a cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 12 minutes. Remove from oven, sprinkle with parmesan, return to oven for 2 minutes. ENJOY!

* Obviously, this would be more frugal if you bought frozen asparagus. If you are going to use frozen, thaw and drain them before roasting.
