    5 oz pearl onions peeled, 1 teaspoon olive oil, Kosher salt
  • Spread the onions on a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil. Roast for at least 20 minutes shaking and tossing a few times.
  • Meanwhile clean and cut the asparagus. Snap off the ends and discard. Then cut them in chunks about 2 inches long. I sliced mine diagonally for a pretty effect.
    1 bundle of asparagus
  • Put the clean asparagus in the same bowl you tossed the onions with the olive oil. Add the bacon bits and cooked onions.
    2 tablespoon real bacon bits
  • Toss again and return everything to the same cookie sheet and sprinkle with a bit more salt. Roast for another 10 minutes until asparagus softens a bit.
