Awesome Asparagus Sandwich
Tender asparagus spears layered with cheese and spreads on toasted bread. A springtime sandwich that’s light, fresh, and surprisingly satisfying.
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed 1 red bell pepper, seeded and quartered
- 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 hoagie rolls
- 6 ounces shredded swiss cheese 1 ripe tomato, sliced
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon minced garlic
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Toss asparagus and red pepper with olive oil. Place on a lined baking sheet and bake until tender, about 10 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, remove skin from the pepper and slice into strips.
- Cut hoagie rolls in half, place on a baking sheet, and toast lightly in the oven. Remove rolls from the oven and sprinkle each half with cheese. Place 4 to 5 asparagus spears and a few strips of pepper on one side. Place slices of tomato on the other side of the roll.
- Place the hoagies back in the oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic together. Spread the dressing on one side of the roll and close sandwich.
