Ingredients

16 asparagus spears thin
3 sheets phyllo dough thawed
1/3 cup butter
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Wash and then trim off the tough ends of the asparagus
Unwrap the phyllo and remove three sheets.
Keep covered with towel until ready to use
Take 1 sheet of phyllo and brush lightly with some melted butter, add second layer and repeat with butter, add third layer, repeat.
Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut the sheets of dough in half lengthwise and then crosswise so you have four rectangles. Cut each rectangle diagonally from top to bottom so you have two triangles from each rectangle. You will have eight pieces total.
Sprinkle with some Parmesan.
Place 2 pieces of asparagus spears on the wide part of the triangle.
Roll up, jelly-roll style.
Place each piece on a parchment covered baking sheet.
Brush with more melted butter and sprinkle with more Parmesan
Repeat until all the asparagus spears are used up
Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy
