Quick and Easy Asparagus (Microwave) image

I have two favorite ways to prepare asparagus. One is to place the asparagus in a hot oven with olive oil, salt and pepper. The second, and easiest, is to microwave it. Microwaving asparagus is so quick and easy. And the best part? No pans to wash! Perfect every time. =)
