Escalloped Asparagus

I'm an asparagus lover, so I like it fixed most any way. This is a great side dish and I think the eggs and cheese really add to it.

Ingredients:

2 cups frozen asparagus, partially cooked
3 hard-boiled eggs, diced
1 scant cup grated cheese
cracker crumbs

White Sauce:

2 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
sprinkle pepper
1 cup milk

Directions:

Mix together White Sauce ingredients, set aside. Cover bottom of buttered casserole with thin layer of cracker crumbs. Add alternate layers of asparagus, eggs, cheese, a light sprinkle of salt on the eggs. Cover with white sauce, sprinkle buttered crumbs over the top. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 40 minutes or until brown.

Servings: 8

Prep Time: 15-20 Minutes

Cooking Time: 40 Minutes
