This simple roasted asparagus recipe has become a favorite at my table because it's incredibly easy to throw together and tastes so much better than it should given how few ingredients you need. Asparagus is naturally packed with fiber and antioxidants, making it a nutritious choice that feels indulgent when roasted until the edges are crispy. The lemon and chives brighten everything up beautifully, and the whole dish comes together in just 35 minutes from start to table. Best of all, it won't break the bank and works perfectly as a side dish for almost any meal.
