HAM AND ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE
Great way to use up leftover rice--I modified a recipe I found on the web and ended up with a real winner. Also great the next morning with scrambled eggs. I have a feeling that the right combination of seasonings could replace the cream of celery soup--let me know if you figure it out!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 and grease a rectangular casserole dish.
- Chop asparagus and ham into bite-size pieces.
- Combine rice, asparagus and ham in casserole dish.
- Combine soup and stock and pour over casserole.
- Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes (test asparagus for preferred texture--I like mine a little crisp).
- Sprinkle cheese on top and bake until melted.
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Fresh Ingredients: Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor. Look for asparagus that is bright green and has tightly closed tips.
- Cook the Asparagus Properly: Don't overcook the asparagus, or it will become mushy. Blanch it for a few minutes, then shock it in ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Use High-Quality Ham: The quality of the ham will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for a ham that is smoked or cured, and has a good amount of marbling.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the ham and asparagus, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly.
- Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices as desired.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the ham and asparagus are still warm.
Conclusion:
Ham and Asparagus Brunch Bake is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weekend brunch or lunch.
