How to make this asparagus casserole recipe
To make this ham and asparagus casserole recipe, start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
Then, combine the stuffing, cut asparagus, and ham in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle the cheese into the mix.
Once these ingredients are combined, spread them in a greased 13x9 cassserole dish.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soup, milk, eggs, and mustard until thoroughly combined.
Pour the milk mixture over the ham mixture in the greased 13x9-inch casserole dish that has been treated with cooking spray.
Mix the wet and dry ingredients well.
Use a large wooden spoon to press the mixture firmly into the 2-quart casserole dish.
Bake the ham and asparagus casserole recipe for 45 minutes at 350 degrees in a preheated oven. When it comes out it will be a golden brown color. Serve the casserole while it is still warm. Simply slice into pieces with a knife. You can season with salt and pepper to taste.
I have made this for breakfast and served it for dinner with a side of pasta or rice, and it is a big hit either way.
This is a wonderful dish to bring to a potluck as well. Be warned if you do, you will be returning home with an empty baking dish. If you are taking this to a potluck, this carrier is a must have.

Thank you for sharing this recipe, it is delicious and perfect for breakfast, or anytime. It was really easy to put together as well. There are so many variations you can create from this as well. I used cheddar because I had no swiss cheeze. The next time I make it I'd like to try the swiss.
Peace be with you
