- Sprinkle each crescent roll triangle with 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese, 1 teaspoon crumbled bacon bits, and 1/2 teaspoon chopped green onions.
- Place 1-2 asparagus spears on top of the cheese mixture on each triangle.
- Roll up each crescent roll tightly, starting from the wide end.
- Place rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
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.
