Asparagus Cream Cheese Spears

I Asparagus Spear
1 tsp Fat Free Cream Cheese
I thin slice Honey Ham 97% Fat Free

I found It helpful to pat dry the asparagus and the ham before the spreading and rolling steps. If the meat or asparagus is a little wet either from cooking or the packing it makes the cream cheese kind of watery.

Blanch asparagus in boiling water for 1-2 minutes depending on how crunchy you want it. Immediately remove from heat and put in ice cold water to stop the cooking process.

Pull apart ham into individual slices. Be very carful because they are very thinly sliced.

Spread cream cheese onto ham and then roll asparagus spear up. You can add some seasoning on to the cream cheese bf rolling if you want- ranch or garlic powder is yummy.

Serving Size: one spear is one serving

Number of Servings: 1
