There’s a short window every year when asparagus is SO good. It’s tender, the flavor is a little bit sweet, and you might even want to make a meal out of it.

That’s usually when I start buying it on repeat and making it every possible way. Roasted? Of course! Air fried? Why not! Wrapped in bacon? YES.

Below, I share my favorite asparagus recipes, including the basics everyone should know, along with some fun ways to gussy it up. (And yes, that includes the bacon wrapped asparagus.)
