Ingredients
  

1 bunch of fresh asparagus, trimmed

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

8 oz fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini), halved

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Optional: 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and mozzarella balls.

      Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and cheese, then add the minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning (if using).

        Gently toss the mixture until everything is evenly coated with the olive oil and seasonings.

          Spread the asparagus and tomato mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

            Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy, and the tomatoes are blistered.

              Once out of the oven, drizzle the balsamic glaze over the roasted mixture.

                Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
