    These wrapped asparagus and ham bundles with a simple homemade honey mustard are the adult version of pigs in a blanket...so easy, and so delicious!

    Wrapped Asparagus: The Definition of Adulthood

    We all know pigs in a blanket.  Pigs in a blanket are like the ultimate college party food that you feel so fancy making when you're 18 and are perfect to re-heat when you've come back home at 4 am.  These are the grown ass adult version though, perfect for when you're stone cold sober and starving at 10:30 am...maybe even trapped in the house with two kids fighting with each other as to who gets the pink plate for lunch on a snow day.  My how times have changed.

    Ingredients Required

    • bundle of asparagus
    • pack of crescent rolls
    • 12 slices of ham
    • Dijon mustard
    • honey
    • olive oil
    • salt
    • pepper
    • parmesan (optional for topping)

    How to Make These Bundles

    First, cut off the ends of the asparagus and rub with olive oil, salt and pepper. Then wrap a piece of ham (the thicker, the better) around 4-5 asparagus spears. Then you'll wrap the bundle with a strip of crescent roll dough in a spiral pattern all the way around. Place bundles onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 425˚ for about 12-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of your asparagus).

    Cutting Your Crescent Dough Into Strips

    To make your crescent roll dough into nice strips, lay out the whole sheet of dough flat on parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll the pre-cut seams together. You'll ultimately need to use your hands and meld some of the pieces together because the rolling pin isn't perfect. Then cut the dough into 12 long strips (they should be a little less than an inch wide).

    Honey Mustard: The Easiest Homemade Condiment

    While these little guys bake for 12 minutes, go ahead and make the honey mustard dip, which is a sweet and cozy drizzle over the savory bundles.  The honey mustard is so simple: equal parts honey and a high-quality Dijon mustard.

    Pro Tips

    • Make sure to tuck the end of the crescent roll strip seam side down so it'll create a nice pocket for the bundles as they bake.
    • Honey mustard, while not required, is truly a must and involves combining two ingredients together: high-quality Dijon mustard and honey. It's so delicious with these wrapped asparagus and ham bundles.
    • Once they come out of the oven, throw some more parmesan cheese on top before serving.
