Asparagus Tomato Squares with Parmesan Cheese
This straightforward asparagus appetizer is ideal for special occasions or perhaps for a simple lunch. I initially made some of these Asparagus Squares while I needed an alternative way to encourage the children to eat more fresh vegetables. Whilst my children normally eat vegetables, they’d prefer to graze on them rather than sit down to some asparagus on the plate.
It’s far easier to get the kids to snap up some carrot sticks along with dip, or this straightforward asparagus square appetizer. It might seems as if it took a long time to create nevertheless it was truthfully seriously fast and simple.
