Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus (if you sharply bend the asparagus near the base, it will snap in the right place). Discard the ends.
- Place the asparagus on the sheet and drizzle with 1 to 2 teaspoons olive oil, just enough to lightly coat the asparagus. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the asparagus, and toss until the spears are lightly coated in oil. Arrange the spears in a single layer on the pan.
- Bake just until the base of the asparagus is easily pierced through by a fork. Very thin asparagus, like the kind shown here, will take as little as 9 to 12 minutes, whereas thicker asparagus will need 15 to 20 minutes.
- Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and season however you'd like. You could keep it simple with a squeeze of lemon juice, or a sprinkle of Parmesan, or add a pat of butter or drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
- Roasted asparagus is best served when it's fresh out of the oven, but it will keep at room temperature for up to 1 hour or up to 4 days in the refrigerator (gently reheat before serving).

Steps:
- Arrange the asparagus in a microwave-safe dish, cover and microwave on high until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. (If you don?t have a microwave, you can steam the asparagus instead.) Brush asparagus with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
- Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Grill the asparagus, flipping occasionally, until tender and lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Cut asparagus in half crosswise and then slice on the bias into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and cook, stirring frequently, until tender and slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
- Lay a tortilla on a work surface and top evenly with 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Add 1/4 of the asparagus and 1/4 of the peppers. Fold tortilla in half to enclose fillings. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Melt 1/2 tablespoon of the butter in a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the quesadilla, flipping once, until the cheese is melted and it is golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Cut into triangles and serve topped with guacamole, salsa, chopped scallions and sour cream.

ASPARAGUS, PECORINO AND RED ONION SALAD

Steps:
- Cut the asparagus, including the tips into very thin slices, crosswise and place in a medium bowl. Add the red onion and pecorino and toss to combine. Dress with the vinegar, olive oil and salt and toss again. This salad should be fairly heavily dressed. The vinegar will sort of "cook" or tenderize the asparagus.
- It is best to do this about an hour or so in advance to let the flavors "marry".
- Semplice!
ROASTED ASPARAGUS
I got this recipe from "Simple Vegetarian Pleasures" by Jeanne Lemlin. I LOVE asparagus and am always on the lookout for new ways to make it. This is such an easy and elegant way to serve it. The asparagus gets a slightly nutty flavor after roasting, which makes it even more yummy.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Cut off the woody bottom part of the asparagus spears and discard.
- With a vegetable peeler, peel off the skin on the bottom 2-3 inches of the spears (this keeps the asparagus from being all "stringy" and if you eat asparagus you know what I mean by that).
- Place asparagus on foil-lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
- Sprinkle with salt.
- With your hands, roll the asparagus around until they are evenly coated with oil and salt.
- Roast for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your stalks and how tender you like them.
- They should be tender when pierced with the tip of a knife.
- The tips of the spears will get very brown but watch them to prevent burning.
- They are great plain, but sometimes I serve them with a light vinaigrette if we need something acidic to balance out our meal.

OVEN-ROASTED ASPARAGUS
Asparagus never tasted so good! Simply seasoned with butter and green onions, they taste fresh and keep their bright green color, too. They're so good, you might want to make extra. This is how to cook asparagus in the oven. -Jody Fisher, Stewartstown, Pennsylvania

One of our favorite ways to make asparagus. We love all of the ingredients and this is great for company because you can make it up ahead of time and just pop in the oven when ready. This can easily be scaled down from 12 servings. From epicurious.com.
