"Yet another asparagus recipe. This one I found in the Food Network magazine. They say to roast the asparagus in a 450 oven for 15 minutes but I like my asparagus hot through but crisp so I cut the time back to 8 - 10 minutes {depending on the thickness). I like the flavour of toasted pine nuts with the asparagus"
