Fresh lemon asparagus is easily dressed up for spring with a few simple additions-and you probably have all of the ingredients on hand already! The versatile veggie is tossed with olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon slices, allowing every inch to absorb all of the tangy flavors. Simply broil the seasoned asparagus on a sheet pan for several minutes, and you'll have yourself a zesty and refreshing side that pairs perfectly with nearly any main dish.
