Asparagus Rolls
from "Forum Feasts," a community cookbook put out by parents of kids at the Forum School in New Jersey. It was published in 1968.
1 can asparagus (no size indicated)*
1 loaf of sliced white bread
8 oz. Roquefort cheese
8 oz. cream cheese
1 Tbsp. mayonnaise
1 egg, beaten
melted butter
Cut all ends from bread slices. Flatten bread with a rolling pin.
In a bowl, combine cheeses, mayonnaise and egg. Spread egg mixture on top of bread slices. Top each bread slice with one stalk of asparagus and roll up. Cut rolls into thirds.
Using a pastry brush, coat rollups with melted butter. Rollups can be frozen at this point. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 and bake for about 15 minutes, or until well browned.
The recipe notes, "There is enough cheese mixture for 2 cans of asparagus and 2 loaves of bread."
