TELLER RECIPE - FEBRUARY 2010

PERFECT ASPARAGUS

1 lb. fresh, pencil-thin asparagus spears
2 Tbsp. margarine, melted
Salt and black pepper to taste
Aluminum foil

Rinse asparagus spears. Snap off the tough ends where they break naturally. Spread the spears in a 13"x9"x2" greased Pyrex dish in 1-2 layers. Drizzle the margarine over the asparagus and season with salt and black pepper. Cover the dish snugly with aluminum foil. Preheat oven to 450 degrees and cook for 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
