Our finished Grilled Asparagus Wrapped with a healthy Choice

ASPARAGUS WRAPPED IN PUFF PASTRY Click To Tweet

One of the favorite Spring vegetables that certainly don’t have a long fresh season around my area, asparagus is know for its fiber and its diuretic quality since it is 93% water. Although it certainly is a star vegetable to grill, I’m taking it to the healthy side and preparing a wrapped asparagus without all the fat, sodium, and calories of bacon or prosciutto wrapped.

This is a super flavorful twist of carrot and puff pastry that is perfect for a dipping sauce. Fresh asparagus comes to life when we wood-fire it on the gas grill with wood chunks for added flavor. When done, you’ll never miss the bacon as this is a meaty, satisfying take on the wrapped asparagus theme. Now, get your bunch of fresh asparagus and learn this healthier version of wrapped asparagus wood-fired!
