Asparagus Casserole
Doesn’t that look yummy? Trust me it was very yummy. I converted an old family recipe into something a little more friendly for my family. Original recipe comes first with what I did in quotes.
Asparagus Casserole:
2 cans asparagus, drained(I used 2 pounds fresh asparagus. I boiled them for about 5 minutes, drained them and then used them)
1 can peas, drained(I used 1 pound frozen sweet peas)
1 can sliced water chestnuts, drained(I didn’t have these on hand so I left them out)
1 can mushroom soup(I made one batch of this recipe but only used half the chicken broth)
velveeta cheese( I used about 1/2 pound of cojack cheese thinly sliced and laid on top)
1 cup crushed Ritz crackers(I used one small bag of plain rice chex cereal, crushed)
1 stick oleo, melted(I used one stick butter, but would say that it was a bit oily so maybe only use 1/2 stick next time)
Layer the ingredients as written into a 9 by 13 casserole dish. Pour melted oleo over top. ( you will note that I put the cereal down, then the cheese, I placed the butter ontop of the cereal but under the cheese) Bake 35-40 minutes in 350 degree oven or until lightly browned.
We loved this recipe and I hope you do too!

We love asparagus, but don’t generally veer from our usual way of eating it. I’d love to try this and change it up a bit! Thanks so much for sharing and linking to Delicious Dish Tuesday!
