Directions
Asparagus Puff Pastry Snacks, Serve as a dinner party starter or serve with a salad as a light lunch Adapted from the Simply Great Recipes website I’ve suggested a few alternatives below I’m well aware from reading reviews on Zaar that many people don’t much like citrus flavourings, but I’ve provided that option for those of us who do! If you’re going down the citrus path and adding a smidgeon of juice to the cream cheese, add it cautiously, a bit at a time, to maintain the basic consistency of the cheese And, as I’ve suggested in the TIPS below, if you’re a feta-lover, then of course substitute feta for the cream cheese!, This Asparagus Puff Pastry snack was very, very good I served some at the school where I work and everyone loved it Good Job!!!! Helen Garza, These were very good We loved the orange zest/crab option Thanks, these were easy to make, and yummy!
