Oven Roasted Asparagus

You know...I was never a huge fan of asparagus until recently. The only way I'd ever had it was crunchy...and maybe that's why. I was like, meh. BUT! I discovered that if I roast it then I can make the tips a little crispy and it was perfect! This is an easy side to make however YOU want. Want it crunchy? Then don't cook it as long as the recipe calls for. But, if you're like me and like it a little crispy from being cooked longer, then here you go!
