 * 4 tablespoons crumbled bacon


 * 8 oz. cream cheese (room temperature)

Directions
1.Flatten bread slices by rolling over them with a rolling pin. Combine bacon, cr. cheese, and lemon zest.

2.Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture on each flattened bread slice. Place asparagus spears on one slice of bread. Rollup each slice like a jellyroll. Cut each roll in half and place seam side down on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

3.Preheat broiler. Brush the tops and sides of the rollups with melted butter. Broil 6 inches from heat until lightly browned and toasted. Serve immediately. (The rollups can be prepared up to this point up to 3 hrs. in advance.)

4.Store in refrigerator.
