Asparagus season is coming! I am jealous of those of you with huge asparagus patches who get to eat as much of this delectable treat as you like. I hope my patch (in its third year) produces enough for use to eat, finally, because I don’t think there’s much better than asparagus, fresh cut from the garden.
I love simply steaming asparagus and serving with lemon and Parmesan cheese, but sometimes it’s fun to try something new and dress up a recipe a tad! I found this recipe while browsing through a furniture store of all places! I was immediately drawn to the gorgeous picture {by contrast, my own picture is quite sad.} 
Regardless, though, this asparagus recipe is really tasty!
This asparagus recipe would be a great addition to a formal meal —> Easter’s coming…

These are so pretty!!! I love asparagus and tried to make something similar once using crescent rolls, but they were gross… I guess I don’t like crescent rolls!
I will have to try the puff pastry next time. Yummy! They look like unicorn horns!
The puff pastry is really good. And good thing, too, because I have to keep making these until I get a decent photo.
Oh I know! I bought my first asparagus a couple of weeks ago and was SO excited. I love these rolled spears!!! With as much asparagus that we eat this time of year, I too, like to mix things up. Thanks for sharing such a great treat!
You’re welcome, MJ! I hope you like it.

These would be wonderful for Easter dinner! They are pretty too:) Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
That’s a new one…I think they’re pretty! I think I’d call them unicorn horns like Rachel suggested.
I’ve just posted this week’s Homemaking Linkup and would love to have you join, if you’d like.

Delicious Cigars looks very perfect party appetizer. thanks for sharing with Hearth and soul blog hop. I am highlighting this recipe on this weeks hop.
Thank you, Swathi!
These looks awesome! I love asparagus and am always looking for new things to do with it.
Thanks, Brandie! Hope you like it!!
Just gorgeous Michelle! Pinned and featured on Facebook today. Thanks so much for sharing at Mom On Timeout!
Thanks so much, Trish!!
Ah! I want to try these! I love asparagus! Quick question though, you list using cream cheese twice, was one of them supposed to be parmesan cheese?
Opps! Thanks for pointing that out. I fixed the recipe. Put the cream cheese on the puff pastry. Sprinkle the top with the parmesan cheese.
What happened to the actual recipe here. I know I seen it before but now that I am ready to make these don’t see anything other then the picture and the intro. What am I missing here?
What the heck??? There was a recipe here. I’ll get it added back on. This is annoying!! Thanks for letting me know.
Where is the recipe?
I have no idea!! I’m panicking a bit because every recipe I wrote using this particular recipe card plug in has vanished from my blog!!! I’m trying to figure out if I can retrieve my recipes or if I will just have to redo them all. I’ll have the recipe back one way or the other.
Thank you for reposting the recipe! I can’t wait to make it tonight
I hoped you liked it!
Oh good, I see you got it back up. I hope that means your plug in started working again and not that you had to rekey them in manually. Thanks
Yes!! The plug-in designer actually had to go in on the backend and fix whatever happened. I’m not sure what he did, but I was sweating pretty hard there for a few days. I never even really thought of losing my work like that!! UGH!! Thanks for hanging in there.
