Asparagus with Brie
Asparagus with Brie pairs tender-crisp spears with rich, melting Brie and a buttery breadcrumb-sesame topping that bakes to a golden, nutty finish. It’s a luscious side that balances vegetal freshness with salty, toasty crunch—great alongside roasted meats or as a standout addition to a spring dinner spread.
