Spring is in full swing here in Minnesota! Temps for the most part have been in the 40's and 50's, and we've been outside grilling at least once a week when the sun is shining and the temps are warm.

With this pregnancy, I've been craving grilled food like crazy and am so thankful for my boyfriend who spends hours making the foods that cure my cravings!

We most recently had grilled steak and veggie kabobs, brats, burgers, pig wings and of course, asparagus.

Asparagus is one of my favorite spring foods along with rhubarb and I love trying out new recipes using it.

This recipe is full of garlic, cheesy goodness and the asparagus turns out tender and so flavorful!

The best thing about this recipe is you can make either in the oven or on the grill and it turns out perfect every time.

Use any cheese you have on hand or prefer, and mix up the seasonings for a new flavor each time you make it!

What is in Cheesy Garlic Asparagus?

  • Butter: A dairy product consisting of approximately 80% butterfat and made from the fat and protein components of milk or cream. Most commonly made from cow's milk, but can also be made from sheep, goat, yak, or buffalo milk.
  • Garlic: My love for garlic is real. I use it in almost everything I cook and I love the health benefits it offers. Garlic is part of the onion, leek and chive family. It's great for heart health and contains many vitamins and minerals.
  • Asparagus: Asparagus, or garden asparagus, or sparrow grass, is a perennial flowering plant. Its young shoots are used as a spring vegetable. It's low in calories, contains fiber, potassium, vitamins a, c and k and folate.
