Crispy Parmesan Asparagus Spears Recipe

These are super easy to make and Kids love them!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup whole wheat panko or bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
• 1 Tbs. Italian herbs (you can find them in any grocery’s spice section)
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 bunch asparagus, cleaned and stems removed (if you snap the asparagus down towards the bottom, they will naturally break at the woody part at the bottom)

• 
  

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees and coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. Mix the first 5 ingredients in a bowl.
3. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl.
4. Place the flour in another bowl.
5. Make an assembly line with the bowls. Dip the asparagus first into the flour, then the egg and finally into the bread crumb mixture, coating evenly and repeating with all the sticks.

6. Place all of the coated sticks on the baking sheet/rack. Arrange so they’re not touching, spray lightly with oil and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the bread crumbs are golden.

Enjoy!
