ASPARAGUS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
MY SISTER introduced me to this recipe several years ago because she knows I love blue cheese. This dish is a simple way to dress up asparagus, giving it a tangy taste altogether different from the usual cheese sauce. I make it every spring when we have fresh homegrown asparagus. -Leona Luecking West Burlington, Iowa

Steps:
- Trim crusts from bread, and flatten slightly with a rolling pin.
- In a bowl, stir blue and cream cheeses together with the egg until well blended and creamy. Spread a thin layer of cheese mixture over each slice of bread. Roll one asparagus spear inside each, and fasten with a toothpick.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan. Roll each asparagus wrap in butter to coat. Place on a baking sheet small enough to fit into the freezer, and freeze for one hour, or until butter hardens and wraps are somewhat firm. Remove pan from freezer, discard toothpicks, and cut each wrap in half crosswise. Store in a resealable plastic bag in the freezer until ready to use.
- To serve, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
- Arrange frozen asparagus wraps on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until lightly browned. Check occasionally, and turn if necessary, for even browning and to prevent burning. Enjoy!

BLUE CHEESE ASPARAGUS ROLLUPS
These are lovely appetizers to serve and so easy to make and not too expensive ingredients. You may freeze them before baking just allow a little longer in the oven when baking from the frozen state. I have just made these again using square white sandwich bread. I needed 25 slices of bread, put a generous tbsp of the filling on each, cut them in two and ended up with 50 appies. If using the sandwich bread you will need few extra asparagus but most aaparagus are longer than the slice of bread so you get 1 1/2 from most spears
