Asparagus Roll Ups

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2. 2

   Grease a baking sheet.

3. 3

   Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning now and then, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the slices on a paper towel-lined plate.

4. 4

   Once the bacon is cool, crumble it and set it aside in a bowl.

5. 5

   Put the asparagus spears in a large skillet and add about 1 inch of water. Set over medium heat, cover, and simmer until bright green and slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Remove the asparagus and set aside.

6. 6

   Add the cream cheese and chives to the bowl with the bacon and stir until evenly combined.

7. 7

   Using a rolling pin, roll each slice of bread on a work surface until thin and flat.

8. 8

   Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each bread slice.

9. 9

   Place 2 asparagus spears in the center of a bread slice, then roll the bread around the asparagus into a neat, compact cylinder. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

    Brush each roll with melted butter and sprinkle each with about 1 1/2 teaspoon Parmesan cheese.

    Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown and hot, 10 to 12 minutes.
