Quick and Easy Paleo Lemon Asparagus Recipe

5 ingredients make up this simple but flavorful asparagus recipe!

Ingredients

2.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 bunch asparagus
¼ tsp sea salt
2 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, sliced

Instructions

Prepare the asparagus by cutting off the ends.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan on medium to medium-high heat.

*If you don’t have garlic cloves, try garlic powder. Just use 1/4 tsp of garlic powder in place of the 2 garlic cloves. Just make sure it’s Paleo-approved (and doesn’t have additives) if you’re following a Paleo diet.
