SHRIMP AND ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE

Shrimp and Asparagus Casserole image

This scrumptious seafood dish "travels well". At least, the recipe does= I make sure to pack it in my handbag whenever my husband and I are preparing to visit out-of-state relatives. Now that we're retired, we travel often. And it's our custom to take over in the kitchen wherever we visit and whip up one of our own family favorites-frequently this casserole. It never fails to win us compliments...along with invitations to visit again!

I found this in a magazine I was looking at today. It sounds good. I am not sure all of my family members will like this, but I plan on making it.
