~Asparagus Tart~



Ingredients
·       Flour, for work surface
·       1 sheet frozen puff pastry
·       5 1/2 ounces (2 cups) Mazzarella cheese, shredded
·       1 1/2 pounds medium or thick asparagus
·       1 tablespoon olive oil
·       Salt and pepper





Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a sizes you need. Trim uneven edges. Place pastry on a baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.


Remove pastry shell from oven, and sprinkle with Mazzarella.


 Trim the bottoms of the asparagus spears to fit crosswise inside the tart shell. In a steamer, steam asparagus for about 3 minutes. Arrange in a single layer over Mazzarella, alternating ends and tips.
 Brush with oil, and season with salt and pepper.

 Bake until spears are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.



Enjoy!
