This month, my assigned blog was Fried Ice & Donut Holes. Melissa, who is a teacher by trade, started her food blog in 2009. I love the story behind her blog's name and she has some GREAT recipes, it was so hard for me to choose.
When I saw her Asparagus Gruyere Tart, I was on board. My husband had been begging for steak when he got home from visiting his family and seeing his little brother graduate from Basic Training. I thought this tart would be the perfect side (instead of having potatoes) and we just recently tried gruyere for the first time and absolutely love it!

What you need:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed, but cold
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups Gruyere cheese, grated
- 1 lb. asparagus, trimmed
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil
- Unfold your puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Slice into 6 rectangles. This is particularly easy since it's already got a creased from being folded into thirds.
- Score a 1/4-inch border along the inside of each rectangle and place onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
- Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Top with cheese and then add 5 to 6 asparagus spears on to the cheese.
- Brush or mist with olive oil and sprinkle with more pepper.
- Bake at 400* for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
