DIRECTIONS
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.

My husband and I loved this recipe. I did make a few changes because I did not have the correct ingredients on hand. I used Ritz crackers and cheddar cheese soup. In addition I used fresh steamed asparagus and then added milk to the soup mixture. The results were great, thanks!

This was the first recipe I've ever taken from this website (new user) and it was a huge success!! I made it for a holiday party but it didn't get eaten because there weren't many asparagus-eaters, so I brought it to another gathering the next day and we ran out, and had people asking for more, and for the recipe! It was great....and that was as leftovers. I modified the recipe to include fresh asparagus instead of canned, Cheese-its instead of saltines (as one other reviewer suggested), and cream of asparagus instead of mushroom. I think it provides a lot of flexibility for improvising, based on what's in the cabinets. Thanks for the recipe!

I would recommend not putting the juice from the canned asparagus into the liquid mixture, the flavor of that stuff is horrible. I like asparagus, but this didn't taste good at all.

This was excellent! I used fresh asparagus and steamed it first using chicken broth. Then I realized the only crackers I had on hand were Triscuts, which turned out to be a good substitute. Eliminated the almonds and followed the recipe otherwise and it was fantastic, thanks!

Delicious! I used fresh asparagus (didn't steam first, just threw it in), cut the butter down a little, and cut down the amount of crumbs a little. I can see where canned asparagus wouldn't be good - I'll only make this recipe with fresh. Oh, and I used more asparagus than what was called for.

This recipe was pretty good. The asparagus from a can was pretty icky, so I'll probably use fresh or frozen and just cook it ahead of time next time I try this one.

We thought this was very good. Next time I won't add all the almonds.

Great the first time round, but didn't reheat very well.

I got plenty of raves about this recipe. Everyone loved it! If you decide to use fresh asparagus, I recommend steaming it and cutting it into bite size pieces. I used fresh asparagus that I had blanched and frozen--it was too stringy. Today I am going to chop it first.

My dad is a big fan of this casserole. It's a snap to make, too. I use butter flavored crackers (e.g. Ritz) in place of the saltines, and a second can of asparagus. (Just the spears, not the juice.) I find this gives the casserole a better ratio of veggies to starch.
