Steps:

• Preheat your grill to medium-high direct heat.
• Trim the asparagus of the woody ends. Place on a sheet tray and drizzle with olive oil. Season with freshly ground black pepper and salt.
• Wrap bacon slices around each asparagus spear. Skewer both ends of asparagus on each side to secure the bacon. Add 3 to 4 asparagus to each skewer.
• Grill skewers on direct heat until the asparagus is tender and the bacon is crisp about 15 minutes; halfway through the grilling flip the asparagus. Transfer to a platter, remove the skewers and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven, if using, to 400 degrees F.
• Lightly coat asparagus spears in extra-virgin olive oil. Season the asparagus with black pepper. Take a quick count of the spear tips. Divide the total number by four. Gather that number of spears and use a slice of bacon to wrap the bundle and secure the spears together. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• To grill, place bundles on hot grill and cover. Cook 10 to 12 minutes until bacon is crisp and asparagus bundles are tender.
• For oven preparation, place bundles on slotted broiler pan. Bake 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Snap the dry stem ends off of each asparagus and place on a heavy baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss. Roast until the asparagus is tender, about 15 minutes. Cool completely.
• Wrap each asparagus with 1 piece (about 1/2 a slice) of prosciutto, exposing tips. Arrange on a platter and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Spread prosciutto slices with Neufchatel cheese. Wrap slices around 2 or 3 asparagus spears. Arrange wrapped spears in a single layer on a medium baking sheet.
• Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until asparagus is tender.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the asparagus, and cook for 5 to 6 minutes.
• Drain, and when the asparagus is cool enough to handle, wrap each spear with a slice of prosciutto.
• Brush the spears with oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Set the grill on medium heat, and cook the asparagus for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until the prosciutto is marked.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus.
• Unwrap the phyllo and cut the stack in half lengthwise. Reserve 1 stack for later use. Cover the phyllo with a damp towel to keep it from drying out.
• Take 1 sheet of phyllo and brush lightly with some melted butter. Sprinkle with some Parmesan.
• Place 2 to 3 asparagus spears on the short end of the sheet. Roll up, jelly-roll style.
• Place each piece, seam side down, on a baking sheet. Brush with more melted butter and sprinkle with more Parmesan. Repeat until all the asparagus spears are used up.
• Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and coat with olive oil.
• Wrap one slice of prosciutto around each asparagus spear, starting at the bottom, and spiraling up to the tip. Place the wrapped spears on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove, and shake the pan back and forth to roll the spears over. Return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until asparagus is tender, and prosciutto is crisp. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Mix butter, seasoning blend and garlic salt. Unfold puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Spread each with 1-1/2 tablespoons butter mixture and sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Top with prosciutto, pressing lightly to adhere., Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each sheet into 12 strips (about 1/2 in. thick). Wrap each strip, filling side in, around an asparagus spear; place on parchment-lined baking sheets., Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Pour the vinegar into a small pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. Turn the heat to medium low and reduce the vinegar by about 1/4, or until it is thick. Let cool.
• Put a pot of salted water over high heat. Trim the asparagus spears to that they are all the same length. Peel the bottom half of the spears with a vegetable peeler. Tie the asparagus together into a bundle using kitchen string. When the water is boiling, lower the asparagus into the pot and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Plunge the asparagus into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. When it is completely cold, remove the spears and lay them out onto a rack to dry.
• Roll a slice of prosciutto around each asparagus spear. Arrange them on a platter and drizzle over some olive oil. Sprinkle with some pepper and salt. Finally, dribble on some of the reduced balsamic vinegar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Divide the asparagus spears into 8 bundles. Wrap each bundle in the middle of the spears with one piece of bacon. Place the bundles seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bake until the bacon is fully cooked, about 25 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the flour over the butter and stir. Cook until the mixture is golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 1 minute. Stir in the mustard powder, onion powder, nutmeg and remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time and continue cooking and whisking until the mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted, then take off the heat.
• Carefully transfer the bacon bundles to a serving platter. Pour the cheese sauce over the asparagus and sprinkle with the fried onions. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Break tough ends off asparagus, wash and steam for approximately 3 or 4 minutes; not too long, keep them tender crisp.
• Lay a slice of corned beef, or your favourite cold cut, flat; spread with about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese. Lay two asparagus spears along one side of the meat with the top of the spear sticking out a little. Roll up tightly like a cigar. The cream cheese will act like a glue and hold them together. They can be cut in half, if so lay the asparagus so that each end has an asparagus top. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut 1 to 2 inches off bottom of asparagus spears.
• Place in gallon sized zip top plastic bag.
• Pour 8 ozs Italian Salad Dressing in bag with asparagus.

• Remove from pan to cool slightly.
• I usually get around 10 to 12 bundles.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Wrap a strip of bacon around each piece of asparagus. Skewer these rolled pieces (about 4 per skewer) so they cover about 4 inches of skewer.
• Preheat a grill to medium-hot. Grill for about 6 minutes, turning the skewers about every 2 minutes as they brown. Don't hesitate to shift skewers as you grill, especially if you notice some skewers browning too fast over a hot spot; trade them with skewers grilling over a less hot part. The bacon will crisp up and sizzle when the skewers are ready. Squeeze lemon juice on the skewers, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, tip in the asparagus and cook for 2 mins until just tender. Drain well. Quarter each slice of ham, into 4 shorter strips, then wrap one around the middle of each asparagus spear. Mix the mayo with the lemon zest and juice and a little pepper and put in a small bowl. Serve with the asparagus, warm or cold, for dipping.

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Combine olive oil and red pepper flakes. Place asparagus on a baking sheet and drizzle olive oil mixture over top; mix together with your hands to coat.
• Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around each asparagus spear, angling as you wrap to cover most of the asparagus. Arrange on the baking sheet and season with salt and pepper.
• Broil in the preheated oven until prosciutto is sizzling and crispy and asparagus is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer asparagus to a serving platter. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas).
• Trim asparagus to 6 inches long, then toss with oil and 1/4 tsp pepper in a small dish. Wrap middle of each asparagus with 1 slice of pancetta. Thread 3 or 4 wrapped asparagus 1/2 inch apart onto each skewer.
• Oil grill rack, then grill asparagus, uncovered, turning, until pancetta is golden brown in spots and asparagus is crisp-tender, about 6 minutes.
