- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 tbsp. olive oil

- crumbled Feta cheese
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 °F. Rinse asparagus and remove about 1 inch from the bottom of the stem. Place asparagus on a cookie sheet, and arrange the cherry tomatoes in between the spears. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with a little bit of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Roast the vegetables for approximately 25 minutes.

Tip: store your asparagus upright in the refrigerator in a container with about 1/2 inch of water and they will stay fresh for up to a week.
