Did you know that asparagus is a natural anti-inflammatory? Plus, it’s loaded with Vitamin K, which is essential for strong, healthy bones.
Give this simple, 15-minute recipe a try tonight!
Ingredients:
-1 bunch of fresh asparagus (woody ends trimmed)
-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
-2 cloves garlic, minced
-1 fresh lemon (half sliced into rounds, half for juicing)
-Sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste
-Optional: A sprinkle of parmesan cheese or toasted pine nuts
Instructions:
1. Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F.
2. Season: Lay the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
