Puget Sound Asparagus Roll Ups
Number of Servings: more than 8
My Yacht Name: Knot Tonight
Yacht Manufacturer: Carver
Ingredients: Cream Cheese (Spreadable) 16 oz
Sandwich Style Ham Slices 12-24 depending on size
Pickled Asparagus Spears 24
Directions: Spread cream cheese over shortest lengh of ham, both ends if possible, I use the large rectangles, then cut in half. The asparagus spear goes on top of the cream cheese and roll it up. Serve as cold as possible or keep in shade. Two roll ups a piece as a serving. Too easy.
Comments: I buy the asparagus spears and ham at Costco. We always have this on our annual trips up to the San Juans or while cruising at home around Vashon Island. The kids love this one as much as the adults.
