Asparagus Rollups image

A do-ahead appetizer. You can 'wow' them with this one. I found this at Southern Living and this is the recipe as written. I like to use about half of the amount of blue cheese called for and I just use a 'swipe' on the bread.. not 2 tablespoons full.

I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I love these rollups. The prosciutto and cheese really mask the flavor of the asparagus.
