Asparagus in Blankets



I did a quick modified version of a recipe Ela found on disney's family.go.com here is a link


Ingredients

Pillsbury croissant roll dough (in the tube)
Bundle of asparagus, trimmed and cooked* - I used about 3 cut stalks per roll
1 small tomato, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
About 2 ounces cheddar or mozzarella cheese, sliced

Directions
  1. Follow directions on Pillsbury package for pre-heating the oven. 
  2. Open the tube and layout the dough. It comes sectioned into 8 triangles (makes 8 large rolls, you could make a lot more by cutting the dough into smaller triangles). 
  3. Cut the tomato slices in half. 
  4. Lay the tomato on the wide side of the triangles, then place a cheese slice and 2 or 3 asparagus spears right on top.
  5. Start rolling the dough starting from the wide side of the triangle towards the long point. 
  6. Lay the rolls on a greased or lined cooking sheet and cook for about 15 min.
*How to cook asparagus: Boil asparagus in salted water until the stalks are just tender, about 4 minutes, then chill them.
