Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 cups crushed saltine crackers
½ cup butter, melted
1 cup condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (15 ounce) can asparagus, drained with liquid reserved
½ cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, mix together the Cheddar cheese and cracker crumbs. In another dish, stir together the melted butter, soup, and the juice from the can of asparagus.
  • Use half of the cracker mixture to make a layer in the bottom of a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish. Arrange half of the asparagus spears over the crumbs, sprinkle with 1/2 of the almonds, then pour 1/2 of the soup mixture over. Build another layer, starting with the remaining asparagus spears, then the remaining soup mixture, and ending with the remaining cheese and crumbs on top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden.
