Asparagus with Sliced Almonds and Parmesan Cheese

I found what has become my favorite asparagus recipe on allrecipes.com, presented by a contributor named BRENOLA. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/asparagus-with-sliced-almonds-and-parmesan-cheese/detail.aspxThe dish is described as a simple side dish. The description is accurate. For me, the simple applies to the prep, but the taste is out of this world. I made this dish just last night. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Recipe Tip: In my home we prefer thin asparagus and that is what I used...mmmm....mmmm good! The entire process from prep to table took approx. 15 minutes. It just doesn't get much easier.

Ingredients
2 Tbsp butter
1 lb. asparagus, bottoms trimmed or snapped off
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese


Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, and cook, stirring, about 3 minutes. Stir in almonds and Parmesan, and cook until the cheese is slightly browned, about 3 to 5 minutes.
