    Salmon Asparagus Bundles are a tasty, simple, elegant, and healthy appetizer or light lunch perfect for springtime

    Salmon Asparagus Bundles from Living Well Kitchen

    Today I have an easy springtime appetizer/light meal for you.

    These happened because I was going out of town and needed to cook my asparagus before they went bad and use some roasted bell peppers and salmon I had leftover from The Lent Special grilled cheese.

    They are fabulously easy and quite pretty

    You could serve them as an appetizer for a nice brunch, lunch, or dinner. They would be a wonderful addition to an Easter menu as well.

    They are great because pretty much anyone can eat them ~ gluten free, egg free, soy free, nut free, shellfish free, corn free, dairy free. Just be sure to check labels to make sure they are free of certain ingredients you need to avoid.

    The best part about them is how easy they are and how simple they are to throw together.

    You just roast the asparagus and bell pepper {or use a roasted bell pepper}. Slice the bell pepper. Then wrap the smoked salmon around the roasted asparagus and bell pepper.

    You can either serve them as is or stick them back in the oven for a quick broil.

    I preferred the broiled version, but they were equally delicious both ways.

    The recipe serves about 4 people but can easily be doubled or tripled or even quadrupled as needed. I kept leftovers in the fridge and ate them for a light lunch and even for breakfast (I'll eat anything at breakfast ha).

    There's really not much else to say about these things other than that they are incredibly simple, quite tasty, and rather healthy ~ just salmon {full of healthy omega-3 fats and protein} and veggies. My kinda app/light meal.

    Enjoy!
