Quick! Name your favorite vegetable!

If you said asparagus, then I’ve got a delicious recipe for you today!

I’d have to say that my favorite veggies are asparagus and mushrooms. Actually, if I’m being brutally honest, mushrooms come first, followed veeery closely by asparagus. And then broccoli, potatoes, corn, and so on. I’m not really picky when it comes to veggies, but I have an extreme love for the first two that I mentioned.

And it just so happens that the hubster loves asparagus too, so we eat a lot of that in our house. And that’s just fine by me!

Since we eat it quite often, I’m always testing out new ways to prepare it. From this Roasted Lemon Parmesan Asparagus, to the simple roasted kind, I love it all.

But, after making this Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus with Feta, I think I may have just found my new favorite way to eat it.

There’s just something about prosciutto that makes it soooo good. It’s a meat that I hardly ever have, but when I do, I silently vow to eat it more. On sandwiches? It’s the best! In pasta? Give me some more! And wrapped around tender asapargus? Well that’s a winner for me. And you, too, if you love prosciutto.

And then comes the feta. Oh how I love feta. It’s savory, crumbly, and goes well with just about anything. Especially with asparagus and salty prosciutto. It definitely gives this veggie the perfect touch.

    Oh gawsh, my favorite vegetable?! That's like asking me to pick my favorite dog. I can't! I love them all. ;) And I definitely love asparagus, although I hated it when I was younger. Prosciutto wrapped asparagus is one of my favorite appetizers or sides and I LOVE that you jazzed it up with the feta!! Such a delicious addition, Gayle! I could totally eat my weight with these wrapped, stalky beauties! Pinned of course! Cheers, girlfriend!

    I just LOVE prosciutto too! It makes everything a little more special. This would be the perfect side dish for Easter! (Can you tell I'm yearning for Spring already?!?)

    My favourite veggie? That's so hard and depending on when you ask me, my answer could vary. I love 'em all!! Asparagus would definitely be at the tip top of the list, though, especially when you add feta and prosciutto. Love that it is so quick to prepare, but still looks super fancy and so perfect when you have guests over....or even better as part of a random weeknight dinner. Pinned, of course. Hope you have a fabulous week, my friend!

    Asparagus IS my favorite vegetable, and I've been known to eat an entire bunch myself off the sheet pan when I roast it. It's in everything when it's in season! I would absolutely inhale these -- I love that you wrapped them in prosciutto and the feta is such a delicious touch!

      I'm with you, Marcie! I have to muster up ALL of my willpower not to eat asparagus from the pan. Thanks for the kind words!

    This looks so amazing, Gayle! I adore asparagus - we made something similar to this for Christmas, but with some cream cheese wrapped in instead of the feta. Feta sounds even better! I'm on Whole30 right now though...so I'll skip the cheese, but I can totally still make these. Going on my to-make list :)

      Oh I will have to try it wrapped with cream cheese...sounds delish! And yay for doing Whole30, I want to try that! Thanks for the asparagus love, friend!

    What a question!! I must say, you definitely have me intrigued about eating asparagus more. :) Good to know that mushrooms are your absolute fave... that might be answer too! Meanwhile, I love how creatively you prepare, well, just about everything! This recipe, in particular looks impressive enough to serve at a dinner party. How cool is that? Thanks for sharing such a creative and easy recipe, G! Hope you have an awesome week. Pinned, of course! xoxo

    I LOVE so many veggies but Asparagus is definitely one of the top contenders! I can and have finished an entire tray of roasted asparagus by myself! I love that you wrapped them in prosciutto and the feta! Looks so yummy, Gayle!

    I didn't start eating asparagus until a few years ago but I love it so much now! I'm usually just boring and roast it with olive oil and salt, but I like your way much better! Especially with all that feta cheese!

    One this sounds delicious! And two reminds me so much of a friend! She made something similar to this for easter last year but cooked them on the stovetop ... and managed to set off the fire alarm while doing so (think smoke everywhere). I need to send this to her - I think it would be much better in the oven!! haha :)

    It's so hard for me to choose my favorite vegetable! Tomatoes would definitely be it, but since they aren't technically a vegetable... I'd have to say kale... but I really do love asparagus and also mushrooms. I just can't pick! Haha. Anyway, this asparagus looks amazing, Gayle! I love prosciutto and feta - I bet it goes perfectly with that asparagus. In fact, I can almost taste it.. my mouth is watering!

      I was thinking of tomatoes too, but I know they're a fruit, so I didn't want to confuse anyone! :) Thanks for the asparagus love, Keri!
