Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 2 tablespoons dried cranberries

  • 2 tablespoons roasted pumpkin seeds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. Arrange asparagus on prepared pan in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

  3. Drizzle with vinegar and syrup mixture and toss lightly to coat. Roast until crisp-tender, 7-10 minutes.
