Asparagus Roll Ups
- 8 ounces cream cheese (room temp)
- 12 cup sour cream
- 1 (1 ounce) Good Seasons garlic and herb seasoning mix
- 12 lb smoked turkey (sliced thick)
- 12 lb low-sodium ham (sliced thick)
- 2 lbs asparagus
- In a small bowl cream together your cream cheese, sour cream and Herb and Garlic seasoning.
- Mix well and set aside.
- In a large 6 qt (or greater) fill 3/4 with water and allow to come to a boil.
- Add 1/4 cup salt once boil has been accomplished.
- Take your asparagus and trim them so they are all 4-5" in length (you can always save what you cut off the bottom for some great asparagus soup) place in boiling water - set timer to 4 minutes.
- Prepare an ice bath - in large bowl add 6 cups of ice and cover with cold water.
- Once the asparagus have reached the 4 min mark with a slotted spoon remove and place in the ice bath to shock them.
- Remove one at a time to a drying towel once the are completely cooled.
- Take your deli meats and cut them into 3 1/2 stripes (the cut side of the meat will be the down side of your cut asparagus) take your spread and generously spread over the deli meat - then take an asparagus tip and place it at the end of the meat so you have cut side of the meat and cut side of asparagus together.
- Roll the meat around the asparagus.
- If you have a lot of patience and I mean a lot since this simple dish already takes a lot more than usual patience you could take an onion green top and split them into 1/8" strings, and tie them at mid portion of your appie.
- Arrange them in a circle in the center place some split onion greens and enjoy!
