Watch your salt

This was very simple but you have to be careful to adjust the roasting time of the asparagus depending on how thick they are. Mine took less than 10 min to cook. Also, watch out for how much salt you use since the prosciutto is already plenty salty. This makes a great finger food!
I could eat this every day.

Quick and super easy to make! Makes a nice side dish with dinner or a delicious snack in the middle of the day. I tried sprinkling freshly grated parmigiano cheese on the prosciutto before rolling and it adds a nice little flavor.

A little salty.

This came together just lovely. They looked gorgeous but were a little salty for most of us. The meat is salty enough. No need to salt the sprigs.
TASTY....

It was a great dish. I make it all the time now. I changed the recipe a little bit though. Instead of wrapping it in prosciutto, and making it an appetizer, I use it as a side dish. After it is done baking, I just sprinkle some freshly grated parmesan chease on top, and it makes a beautiful sid dish than even kids love.
Beautiful and healthy dish!

But I have to admit I had to do something different the second time I made it. The first time, the asparagus was a little tooo crunchy. Although that's the way to eat this veggie I found blanching it for 3 minutes first, before roasting it helped the texture considerably. I'll make this a regular. Thankyou!
Very good

User: kelly from Eagan, MN User Rating:
These are a great way to add additional veggies to your day. I have served them at parties and made them just for me. They reheat well and are also OK right out of the fridge if there are leftovers. I spiral the proscuitto around the asapragus after cutting it in half lengthwise to reduce the salty taste.
Excellent even without the Prosciutto

User: EVETTE from new braunfels, TX User Rating:
I made the roasted asparagus and served it without wrapping each spear in the prosciutto. It is excellent and makes a marvelous side for just about anything. Very easy! I only give it 4 stars because I didn't try it with the prosciutto, but I bet it's delicious that way, too!
Yummy and pretty!

I eat asparagus 5 times a week when it finally is in season. This recipe was excellent. Roasting the asparagus gives it such a different flavor and anything with prosciutto is a winner!

Very, very good. I used frozen asparagus and wrapped the prosciutto when the apsaragus was just quite, but not enirely done. The oven crisped up the meat a bit and it was heaven for our tastebuds!!

User: PATRICIA from Salisbury, MD User Rating:
I love the way the asparagus is cooked and the prosciutto wrapped is a good idea. It may be the quality of the prosciutto that ruined the dish or it may be prosciutto isn't a favorite of mine but I may have liked it better with thinly sliced warmed ham.
LOVE THIS!

We took the peeled and snapped asparagus in a zip lock bag and added olive oil (just enough for seasoning to stick), kosher salt, freshly ground pepper and 4 cloves of minced garlic. I let it sit for about 1/2 hour, then remove the spears and put them on the BBQ grill. Turn the spears once but don't turn your back. They cook quickly. Thanks, Giada for giving me yet another new twist to an old favorite. I will be wrapping little bunches for Easter Dinner this weekend. I'll keep on watching!

For a classic appetiser....Pan sear the asparagus in olive oil to about 50% doneness...Wrap in prosciutto..and place two bundles per person on baking dish..heat oven to 400....and roast for about 5 minutes...as you roast...make one sunny side up egg per person in a pan with very light butter...when the asparagus are done...place two bundles per person on a plate and cover with a sunny side up egg..pepper to taste...serve with chilled champagne

I made this recipe without the Prosciutto and it was AMAZING. I love Asparagus but have always had a hard time cooking it well -- not too hard, not too soft and slimy. The balance has always alluded me -- but not anymore!!
Thank God for asparagus!

My family has never had trouble eating asparagus but when made this way - it disappears so fast. The only addition I made was to drizzle the wrapped asparagus with balsamic vingegar.

No need to cater appetizers or side dishes to impress a discriminating crowd. This dish is just as pleasing to look at as it is to eat. If you can boil water, you're in business. Try half the spears with with toasted walnuts for your vegan friends. Grazzi Giada!

I followed the recipe exactly...and it was superb! This recipe gives a whole new meaning to asparagus. Roasting the spears with olive oil gives the flowered ends a very nice crunch...and taste. I will continue making these little guys quite often...and their so healthy! Thanks Giada!

I made these 3 times over the holidays to take places because they were so easy, attractive and tasty! We also thought they were a little salty from the meat, so after the first time I didn't salt the spears, and added a little squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Also, I used slightly defrosted/frozen thin asparagas spears and they were the perfect size (3-4"). My guess is they wouldn't have seemed as salty with bigger spears, but I had these on hand and I liked the size appetizer they made using 3-5 spears each. My kids loved them too! Thank you for the great recipe!

so easy, and always impresses the guests. i find 15 min. WAY too long for roasting asparagus of average thickness -- 7-8 min. is usually enough.

I used bacon instead of prosciutto b/c the prosciutto over here is way too expensive. The asparagus still turned out great and it was a hit with my family!
