I made this for our Christmas dinner. I never thought I'd enjoy asparagus as much as I did during this meal. Thought I'd share. It was such a nice smoky tasting dish. Can't wait to make it again!

This serves 2-3
1 lb asparagus with ends trimmed
1 roasted red bell pepper (I got a jar from Trader Joes), sliced
2 oz goat cheese
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

I heated a half TBS of both olive oil and butter in a 10 inch pan over med-high. After the butter had melted, I added asparagus and used tongs to cover the asparagus in the olive oil/butter. Covered it for 3 minutes. Then I turned the heat up to high and turned the asparagus with the tongs. Cooked it for 3-4 more minutes until they were browned. I added the red peppers just to warm up. Then transfered it to a plate and topped with the goat cheese and pine nuts.
 
oh man, that sounds good, cora. thanks. i'll be making this soon.

btw, happy new year to you and your men. :)
