Rich and full of flavor, this creamy, indulgent sauce enrobes the roasted vegetables and fills the puff pastry tarts, making a beautiful presentation that will surely delight your dinner guests.

Roasted Asparagus & Red Pepper Tartlets with Tarragon Brie Sauce is a show-stopping appetizer that effortlessly combines simplicity with elegance. This recipe from CARNATION® MILKS features tender asparagus and roasted red peppers nestled within a crisp puff pastry shell, creating an inviting, bite-sized treat.

The highlight of these tartlets is undoubtedly the tarragon brie cheese sauce.
