Asparagus with Junk

Ingredients:

• 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed
• 1 cup mayonnaise (I used a little less)

• 1/2 cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• enough oil to coat asparagus

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

Coat asparagus with oil and roast at 425 F for approximately 8 minutes.

Lower temperature to 375 F degrees and using a basting brush, spread mayonnaise over the asparagus; sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Bake until the bread crumbs and cheese are golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Optional: Turn on the broiler for the last few minutes.

Source: The original recipe (allrecipes.com) said to steam the asparagus but I decided to roast it instead, as other reviewers of the recipe had done.
