Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
¼ onion, thinly sliced
1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers, crushed
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
½ cup milk
½ cup coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Grease a 1 1/2-quart baking dish.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover pan and bring the water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until just tender, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet; cook and stir mushrooms and onion until the mushrooms have given off their liquid, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the asparagus, tossing vegetables just until hot. Remove from heat.
  • Mix saltine cracker crumbs, sharp Cheddar cheese, and black pepper together in a bowl; spread half the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Spoon the asparagus mixture over the crumb mixture.
  • Whisk the cream of mushroom soup and milk together in a bowl until smooth, and pour the soup mixture over the asparagus mixture.
  • Spread the remaining crumb-cheese mixture over the casserole and sprinkle with pecans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your casserole. Look for mushrooms that are firm and have a meaty texture, and asparagus that is bright green and crisp.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many ingredients to the pan, they will not cook evenly. Cook the mushrooms and asparagus in batches if necessary.
  • Season the casserole well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good choices. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that it is cooked through.
  • Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Mushroom and asparagus casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover mushrooms and asparagus, and it can be served as a main course or a side dish. With its creamy sauce, tender mushrooms, and crisp asparagus, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
