Asparagus With Gruyère

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Cut or break off tough ends of asparagus. Wash asparagus in cool running water, and drain well. Arrange asparagus in single layer in ungreased 11x7-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with salt. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F for 25 minutes or until asparagus is tender.

3. Drizzle melted butter over asparagus; sprinkle cheese on top. Return baking dish to oven for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese softens.
