Grilled Asparagus Roll

Asparagus
Red Pepper
Black Forest Ham slices
Olive Oil
Salt

Instructions:

• Break off the bottom “woody” part of the Asparagus
• Slice the Red Pepper julienne style (thin slices)
• Take 2-3 (depending on how thick the Asparagus is) pieces of Asparagus, 2-3 pieces of the sliced Red Pepper and roll into a slice of Black Forest Ham - put a toothpick through the roll to hold it all together
• Drizzle each Asparagus Roll with Olive Oil and season with Salt to taste
• Place Asparagus Roll directly onto medium high grill (1– 3 minutes per side, it depends on your grill) 
• They’re done when there‘s grill marks on the Ham and the Asparagus stats to caramelize
• Be careful not to over cook - you want the Asparagus hot but not soft, it should be a little bit crunchy
