If you are looking for the perfect side for your Easter dinner, this recipe for asparagus drizzled with goat cheese and honey is super simple but sounds extra fancy.
The asparagus in this recipe remains mostly crispy while the smooth goat cheese and honey drizzle pumps up the flavor. I’m not a huge fan of plain asparagus, so I had a heavy hand when it came to the salt and pepper too.
Just melt the goat cheese and whisk in the honey. Drizzle half over the asparagus and bake for 10 minutes, until the asparagus is sizzling and the goat cheese is just barely browning. Drizzle the rest of the honey and goat cheese over the cooked asparagus and eat! It’s really that simple.
