Bacon, Asparagus, and Cheese Sandwiches

By: Kristin 
"When I was a kid my sister and I LOVED when my mom made these. We would always argue about the order the ingredients should go on the toast. (Of course, I'm submitting this in the order I liked.) It was also a good way to get us to eat asparagus."

  • 1 (10 ounce) can asparagus tips, drained
  • 4 thick slices sourdough bread, lightly toasted

  3. Place a few spears of asparagus on a slice of bread. Top with 2 slices crisp bacon then a slice of cheese.
