Caesar Asparagus

1 bunch asparagus 
2T creamy Caesar dressing 
2T pine nuts 
2t shredded parmesan cheese

In a large frying pan over low heat, toast the pine nuts, stirring frequently. Set aside once they are golden brown. Using the same pan, turn up the heat and add a splash of water and the cleaned and trimmed asparagus; cover with a lid. Allow to blacken slightly, and to steam/sear in its liquid. Once done, plate, and top with dressing, pine nuts and parmesan cheese.

Makes 2-4 servings. 

This would love beautiful with a few parmesan shavings on top instead of shredded parmesan.
