INGREDIENTS

  • 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed
  • 1/2 (2.2 pound) wheel Brie cheese, sliced
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still crisp, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and place in a shallow baking dish.
  3. Lay cheese slices over asparagus. In a small bowl combine melted butter, bread crumbs and sesame seeds. Sprinkle over cheese.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes.
  5. Increase oven to broil. Broil just until breadcrumbs are golden brown.

This dish was wonderful! It won over my veggie-hater husband too. I substituted slivered almonds for the sesame seeds, which also turned out really well. I know what I am bringing to the family Thanksgiving this year. Thanks for the great recipe Vicki!

I made this with white asaparagus...It was a big hit! It was the only dish not left-over the next day.
