Grilled asparagus with a turkey burger

I bought a big bag of fresh asparagus from Costco, so I have been finding different ways to cook it (in addition to the standard practice of steaming it). Grilling the asparagus turned out amazingly well! I drizzled some olive oil over the raw asparagus stalks after cutting off the woody bottoms. I then sprinkled some salt on the oiled stalks and put them on the charcoal grill for a couple minutes per side. Wonderful!

The burger is a Costco frozen turkey burger. I like beef, but I also eat turkey burgers mainly for variety and partially for the lower amount of saturated fat. I added some cheese to make up for the reduced amount of saturated fat.
