These beef and vegetable rolls are like a quick, fresh spin on Italian involtini—pieces of thinly sliced beef rolled around fresh herbs or greens in a cigar fashion before cooking to serve. Only here blanched asparagus spears are the only ingredients that you need to cook. The conveniences of deli meat and a quick sauce made from refrigerator staples allow this recipe to come together easily. Make a double batch of these rolls to keep on hand as a snack or to enjoy as a midday munch; or serve them as elegant finger food at your next party.

Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise and horseradish in a small bowl. Spread a thin layer over each slice of roast beef. Place an asparagus stalk at one end of each beef slice and roll tightly. Serve at once, or cover tightly and refrigerate to serve within 1 day. Bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. Yields 4 rolls per serving.
