Vegetable Spiral Sticks

This is an extremely easy side dish that will leave your husband/wife/guests so impressed. I usually make them as a side to a roast or steak and add some mashed potatoes. I typically end up dipping mine in ranch because as everyone knows- ranch makes the world go round!


Ingredients:


3 Medium Carrots 12 Fresh Asparagus Spears (Trimmed)
1 Tube Refrigerated Breadsticks
1 Egg White, Lightly Beaten
1/4 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Tsp Dried Oregano


Cut your carrots lengthwise into quarters or thirds- whatever your fancy. In a large skillet, bring about 2 inches of water to a boil and add the carrots; cook for about 3 minutes. Add your asparagus and cook another 2-3 minutes longer (be careful not to forget about them because if they get over cooked.. its a sad story- trust me). Drain and rinse with cold water and pat them dry. Cut each piece of breadstick dough in half and roll each piece into a rope. Wrape one rope in a spiral around each vegetable. Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Brush with egg white. Combine cheese and oregeno and sprinkle over sticks. Bake at 375 for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.
