Grilled Cedar Plank Asparagus

Asparagus kissed with the taste of smoked cedar, fresh lemon, and draped in creamy Manchego cheese. This dish makes for its own happy appetizer or as a quick side to any fish grilling. A great way to brighten up any grilled dish is to adding grated lemon. We keep a whole lemon in the freezer at all times to liven up our favorite grill recipes. Then simply grate or shave slices into anything you think might like it.
