My mother gave me this recipe a few years back. I love asparagus, unlike my husband. If I don't tell my husband that it has asparagus in it, he actually eats it and likes it.

  • Top the casserole with breadcrumbs or crushed crackers. This will give it a crispy topping that adds texture and flavor.
