Roasted Asparagus

• Bunch of fresh asparagus staulks
  
• Olive oil
• Pepper
• Salt

Preheat oven to ? 

Wash asparagus in cold water.

Trim hard parts off the ends of the asparagus staulks.

Lay asparagus on a baking sheet.

Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the asparagus. Just enough to thinly coat -- too much and it will splatter and fry in the oven.  So, start with less oil.  Roll the asparagus around to coat with oil.

Add cracked black pepper to taste.

Back in oven until browned.

Remove and add salt to taste.
