If you like asparagus, you will love this. Fresh is always best as far as asparagus goes. This is for our FFF Contest This could be made with canned asparagus, just substitute your juice from the can in place of the chicken broth. 1 can of asparagus would be about right I think

Ingredients

1-2 lb fresh asparagus
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 cup milk
1 cup grated swiss cheese

This was so good; at least 5 stars. That cheese sauce was super good. It took 25 minutes for the asparagus to be cooked to my liking. I made this for WT3; thanks for posting. Rita

Both DH and I loved this! Very simple to throw together and had a great swiss cheese flavor. I baked it for the 15 minutes and the asparagus still had some crunch to it, Perfect!! Thanks!!

This is very easy to make! I liked this for the most part but I thought there was a little too much sauce. I also found it a bit too rich. I am glad that I tried this, though. Thanks for sharing.
