This is one of those side dishes I whip up when I have limited fresh veggies around. I seem to always have a can of asparagus in the pantry. One can serves my family of four.

1 can asparagus, drained (I like DelMonte.)
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp melted butter
Dash of garlic powder
Parmesan cheese
Paprika
Preheat the oven to 400. Gently place the asparagus in an 8×8 glass dish. Pour melted butter and lemon juice over the top. Move dish from side to side to coat. (Try not to touch the asparagus because it is very tender.) Very lightly sprinkle some garlic powder over them. Top with Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of paprika. I have found that I do not need to add salt. Cook about 15 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with a large fork.
