This asparagus recipe is “knock your socks off” delicious! Seriously, even people who think they don't like asparagus, like this roasted asparagus with Dijon dressing.

This recipes is an easy way to cook several pounds of asparagus at once, which is nice for dinner parties. It is also handy to have a recipe that calls for several pounds of asparagus if you went a little crazy when you discovered a great sale on asparagus.

  6. This looks so delicious! We ALL love asparagus in our house (especially my 2 year old son)!

    I’m always looking for a new dressing! And your recipe is amazing, all ingredients I use!

    Just made a roasted asparagus soup that’s totally awesome. Just can’t go wrong with these pretty little green spears.

    Have a great day,

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
