I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I actually enjoyed this recipe. The herbs and olive oil really helped to bring out the flavor of the asparagus.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had some asparagus that was starting to wilt, and this recipe was the perfect way to use it up.

I wasn't sure how the asparagus would turn out with just olive oil, herbs, salt, and pepper, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was so good, I didn't even need to add any butter or sauce.

This asparagus recipe is a keeper! The combination of olive oil, herbs, salt, and pepper is simple, yet incredibly flavorful. The asparagus spears were perfectly tender-crisp, and the herbs added a wonderful aroma and taste.
