Ingredients for Asparagus Cheese Tacos

How to Make Asparagus Cheese Tacos

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Prepare the asparagus: Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound of asparagus and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Assemble the tacos: Lay out 4 large flour tortillas. On each tortilla, evenly distribute 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) and 4 spears of asparagus.
  4. Fold the tortillas in half and lightly brush the outside with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
  5. Grill the tacos for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Remove from grill and add any desired toppings (suggestions below).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
