About This Recipe for Asparagus with Cherry Tomatoes and Parmesan
As you can see, you can make this recipe of asparagus with cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes. You can also change up this asparagus with grape tomatoes recipe (after it’s cooked) by adding some feta or goat cheese. Just crumble a little of the cheese over everything.
However, I wouldn’t add in both of those extra cheeses. It doesn’t replace the parmesan; it supplements it. This is a fantastic flavored asparagus and tomatoes bake recipe. It comes together fast and it is excellent as a one-dish to add this duo arrangement to your dinner as 2 vegetable sides.
