Notes

You can substitute asparagus with green beans or roasted broccoli for a different twist. For a lighter version, use a homemade Caesar dressing or a yogurt-based dressing. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; gently reheat with a splash of Caesar dressing to maintain moisture. Experiment with different cheeses like Pecorino Romano for varied flavors.
