This super easy, weight loss surgery friendly appetizer is a perfect addition to a "tidbit party" menu.
Shelly's Prosciutto-Wrapped Roasted Asparagus
24 Asparagus Spears (thinner the better)
8 slices Prosciutto di Parma, sliced thin (find in Italian Delis, better Supermarkets, Trader Joe's)
Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus. Wrap 3 stems with a slice of prosciutto, and roast in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet.
We serve them with Shelly's Feta & Onion Dip or Pesto Yogurt Dipping Sauce.
Variations: smear the prosciutto with cream cheese before wrapping asparagus. Short on time? This appetizer is also yummy uncooked.
It's also a pretty elegant breakfast served with soft-boiled eggs
for dipping. Perfect for me since I don't do toast.
Shelly's Feta & Onion Dip
1/2 cup Fage Greek Yogurt (I use 2%)
1/4 cup Tomato Basil Feta Cheese, crumbles
1 Tablespoon storebought Pesto
2 Green Onions, diced
a few twists of Black Pepper
Whiz all ingredients in a mini food processor till well combined.
