Toasted Asparagus And Pesto
by Jordan
Sorry I failed to think of a remotely creative name for these, but we were looking for new ways to enjoy the great asparagus we have been seeing at the store as of late.
The batch pictured above was the second time I made these, and in my attempt to get nicely browned cheese on top, I ended up over-cooking the bread on that back row. All the same, the sandwiches or whatever you want to call them were pretty good.
Ingredients:
- Steamed asparagus
- Sandwich thins
- Pesto
- Provolone cheese
As the asparagus is steaming, toast the sandwich things, and then spread about a half-tablespoon of pesto on each one. When the asparagus is softened a little, place a few stalks on each sandwich thin and top with a slice of cheese.
Place them under a broiler, and watch them closely
Enjoy!
If you are going to use a stone like I did, I recommend that you preheat the stone in the oven for a minute or two before loading on the sandwiches.
