Prosciutto & Asparagus Crostini

Prosciutto & Asparagus Crostini
Bundles Of Tasty Goodness! 
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes


Ingredients
1 French Baguette, 12 slices
12 slice of Prosciutto
24 asparagus spears, cleaned and trimmed to 4 inches
small wedge of double cream Brie
2 tbsp Italian herb seasoning blend
chives for ties
olive oil

Cooking Tools
Sheet pan
Small sauce pan
Small mixing bowl with ice water


Directions
Preheat oven to 375 Degrees F.  Slice French baguette on the diagonal.  Place slices on a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian herbs evenly.  Bake for 15 minutes until crispy.  Boil some water in a small sauce pan and place asparagus in boiling water for about 30 seconds and immediately drain and place in ice bath to stop the cooking process and to maintain bright green color. You can also do that with the chives to make it more pliable. Remove from ice water and drain off any excess water. Spread double cream Brie on 1/3 of the Prosciutto and lay 2 asparagus spears on top and roll from from end to the other, creating a pinwheel.  Tie each Prosciutto asparagus wrap with a chive and place each bundle on a cooled crostini.
Yields 12
