How do you usually prepare fresh asparagus?

I usually put some oil and lemon pepper on it, then bake the asparagus. Tonight I am at my mother's (dog sitting) and have the asparagus but she doesn't have lemon pepper. My uncle usually makes it with parmesian, but I don't know what else.

Any (vegetarian) ideas?

How about a little oil, red pepper, garlic powder, salt & pepper?

Toss them in olive oil and sprinkle with salt (kosher if you have it) and pepper. Bake at 400 until desired doneness. Sometimes I add red pepper or garlic.

I do this with string beans too! YUM!

I love asparagus, and I usually just sprinkle it with lemon and grill it. I will have to try these recipes!

Either steamed or grilled (on the stove top) with salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar. Yum yum!

I looooove asparagus! (too bad it makes your pee smell!)

I usually steam it and love it like that. Sometimes I top with Parm. cheese and salt and pepper. My mom does butter and parm. cheese - salt and pepper.

Wash and place stalks in a casserole dish drizzel with olive oil. Take one clove of Garlic peel and slice into medium slices place on top, pour balsamic vinegar almost covering the stalks.
Place in the oven at 350 for 45min.
Add Kosher salt to taste

My Mom makes this with Fish and Rice of Steak and potatoes.

I put lemon pepper or thyme on the peeled asparagus and grill them in my George Forman. I'm new with asparagus because my parents never served them while growing up so I don't have a lot of cooking tips. I will definitely try the recipes above!
