Roasted Vegetables, Asparagus and Queso Fresco Tart

May 31, 2010 by Erica Dinho 23 Comments

Results:

It is tough to think of a better lunch on a spring day than a beautiful crispy, golden puff pastry filled with roasted vegetables, asparagus and creamy queso fresco. This tart was absolutely delicious, we all loved it! It would be great for brunch too.

Serve with a green salad on the side. I hope you enjoy it.
