Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Step 2

In a medium sized bowl, mix together yogurt, egg, garlic, basil and nutmeg.

Step 3

Add in ricotta cheese and mix until fully incorporated. Set aside.

Step 4

On a floured surface, place your puff pastry sheet and roll out until about the size of a standard cutting board (12x18 in).

Step 5

Transfer dough to a lined cookie sheet.

Step 6

Using a fork, score all 4 edges of the pastry about 1 inch apart (this will prevent the pastry from puffing too much on the edges).

Step 7

Spread the cheese mixture evenly onto the sheet. Leave a 2 inch boarder around all edges.

Step 8

Place your asparagus onto the cheese mixture in a single line. You can alternate the tips to face towards you and away from you or have them all face one direction if desired.

Step 9

Lightly brush the asparagus with oil. Sprinkle on salt and the parmesan cheese.

Step 10

Bake for 20-30 minutes or until the edges are a golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting.
