Time 45m

Yield 8 servings of 2 appetizers each

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 or 6 sheets phyllo dough (based on 18 by 14-inch sheets which are often sold in packs of 18 to 20)
1 cup melted butter
1/4 cup Parmesan
1 small wheel brie cheese (8 ounces), cut into 16 mini-wedges
16 asparagus tips, blanched

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Make sure phyllo is completely defrosted. Once removed from package, you will need to cover phyllo with waxed paper and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out. Lay out sheet of dough, lightly butter with pastry brush. Fold sheet in half, butter again. Keep buttering and folding in half (probably 3 "folds" total) until you have a rectangle with dimensions close to 4 by 4-inches. Cut into 3 sections. Sprinkle Parmesan on each piece of dough. Crumble a bit of brie on each. Lay asparagus tip on top and roll dough around asparagus. The tip of the asparagus should show out of the end. Repeat to make 16 pieces. Lay all pieces out on a cookie sheet. Brush each piece with butter and bake in oven until golden brown. Serve warm.

This recipe is a healthy and delicious way to enjoy asparagus. Asparagus is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber. And Boursin cheese is a good source of calcium and protein.

This recipe is very affordable. Asparagus and phyllo pastry are relatively inexpensive ingredients. And the Boursin cheese can be found at most grocery stores for a reasonable price.

I love that this recipe is versatile. You can use different types of cheese, such as feta or goat cheese, or add other vegetables, such as sun-dried tomatoes or mushrooms. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables.

The flavors in this dish are perfectly balanced. The asparagus is earthy and slightly sweet, the Boursin cheese is creamy and tangy, and the phyllo pastry adds a subtle crunch. It's a symphony of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds.

I love how quickly this dish comes together. It's a lifesaver on busy weeknights when I don't have much time to cook. The phyllo pastry cooks in minutes and the asparagus takes just a few minutes to steam.

Easy and delicious! I made this for a brunch party and it was a hit. The asparagus stayed crisp and the cheese was melted and gooey. I'll definitely make it again.
