Place
asparagus on a piece of aluminum foil large
enough to hold the asparagus in a single layer
and to fold over and seal. Place the foil and
contents into a rectangular casserole dish. Lay
sliced bell pepper over asparagus. Sprinkle the
asparagus and bell pepper with olive oil, lemon
juice, and dill. Season with pepper. Wrap the
foil around the asparagus (snugly but not
tightly), and seal tightly by folding the edges
together. |

"The lemon was the key and gave the asparagus a great flavor, and
the red peppers made for a very colorful presentation... our guests
loved it!"
