Absolutely magnificent. The lemon zest really brightened the dish. I used both yellow and red grape tomatoes which made the platter beautiful.

This is a definite keeper- made it for Easter dinner and it was devoured. I think I could eat it for a meal by itself!!! Only change I would make is not add the salt since the cheese is a salty addition at the end. The Roasted tomatoes really were a nice addition to asparagus. YUMMY

This dish is absolutely DELICIOUS!!!!! I love the pine nuts in this dish. I wouldn't change an ingredient in this recipe. My husband loved it also. It's really only enough for three people,because its so good,that you want big servings.

Perfect! Except I find the pine nuts very optional.
