This a deliciously easy way to prepare asparagus. Sometimes I add julienned carrots and steam them together. It all looks very pretty with the colors.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Combine the asparagus and water in a 10 inch skillet and place over medium heat; cover.

Allow the asparagus to steam until tender, about 10 minutes; drain.

Reduce heat to low and return the skillet to the heat.

Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Add the grape tomatoes to the skillet and replace the lid.

Allow to sit covered until the cheese melts and the tomatoes are slightly steamed, about 2 minutes.
