Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 425˚F. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean cutting board. Brush with butter and sprinkle with 1 - 2 tablespoons of BelGioioso Asiago. Repeat with one more piece of phyllo dough. Cut phyllo dough into 4 equal pieces and wrap one piece of asparagus in each piece of phyllo. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat this process with remaining ingredients. Sprinkle remaining Asiago on wrapped asparagus. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until phyllo is lightly browned. Serve immediately.
