I like this as a sort of brunch recipe, but really it's good any time. Quick and easy, too, because it's done in the microwave.
Ingredients:
4 slices Swiss cheese
8 thin slices boiled ham
1 can asparagus spears, drained
1 can cheddar cheese soup
2 Tbsp. water
1/4 tsp. celery salt
1/4 cup sliced almonds
Directions:
Layer 1/2 slice cheese on each ham slice. Top with 2-3 asparagus spears. Roll as for jelly roll. Place seam side down in 8x12 inch glass dish. Combine soup, water and celery salt in bowl. Mix well. Spoon over ham rolls. Microwave, covered with plastic wrap, on high for 5-7 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with almonds.
