Ingredients

Fries

1 cup almonds 143 g
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese 50 g
½ tsp salt
½ tsp paprika
¼ tsp ground black pepper
½ cup all-purpose flour 64 g, can sub all-purpose gluten-free flour
2 eggs whisked
1 lb asparagus 450 g

Yogurt Dip

¼ cup plain Greek yogurt 60 g
¼ cup cream cheese 60 g
1 clove garlic minced
1 Tbsp chopped chives

Instructions

Prep: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a food processor, pulse almonds until they become coarse crumbs. Mix in the grated Parmesan, salt, paprika, and pepper. Prepare your workspace by putting the flour, eggs, and almond mixture in three large, shallow dishes.
Coat: Trim the tough bottoms off your asparagus. Roll each spear in flour, dip in the eggs, and coat with almond crumbs.
Bake: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the spears are tender when pierced with a fork. While the asparagus spears are cooking, combine all the yogurt dip ingredients.
