BAKED ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM PASTA
Take classic Mediterranean flavors and make American-style comfort food for your family! If you are looking for a meatless meal, serve this with a salad and crusty bread. If your family prefers a protein, a rotisserie chicken or a slice of ham would be an easy and tasty addition to the lovely flavors of this casserole.

HAM, ASPARAGUS, AND PASTA CASSEROLE
I have no idea where this came from, but I'm pretty sure I tweaked it from some cookbook or another. This is not only easy, it's incredibly tasty. Not too heavy, and doesn't take long in the oven so it's not bad for a summertime casserole.

PASTA WITH ASPARAGUS
A clipped out recipe from one of the TOH magazines submitted by J Fisher. She originally added red pepper flakes and hot sauce (1 tsp flakes & 3 dashes hot sauce) to this dish but due to allergies in our home I had to take those out and adjust with a bit more pepper and some extra garlic. I hope you enjoy it. I love making this in the Spring when asparagus is very fresh and has small stalks.

ASPARAGUS PASTA CASSEROLE
I found some week old asparagus in my fridge one Friday while looking for something to make to save some cooking time over the weekend since I was having some company over that I hadn't seen in years. I quickly prepared this all up and we enjoyed it for the rest of the weekend!

Steps:
- Boil a pot of water large enough to fit the box of pasta. Pre-heat oven at 350.
- While waiting for the water to boil before putting the pasta in you can chop-up your peppers and onions, mince your clove of garlic, grate the cheese, cut off the woody bottom part of the asparagus and chop the rest of the sprig into 3-4 pieces. Put pasta in the boiling water and add a pinch of salt only if you want. Stir frequently.
- Just before the pasta is ready to your liking drain the water and then put pasta back into the pot. Put in all of the peppers, onions, garlic and asparagus and mix together. Now add in all of the sour cream and alfredo sauce blending it all together. Stir in 2/3's of the bread crumbs leaving the rest for topping.
- There should be just enough for either two(2) 8X8 casserole dishes or one(1) large casserole dish. Fill half of the dish up with mixture, put a layer of cheese over top leaving some for the top, then put in the rest of the mixture. Put the rest of the cheese on top of the mixture then flatten the rest of the bread crumbs on top of it all. Sprinkle a little parmesan cheese on it if you desire.
- Place dish(es) into the oven and let warm for 25-30 minutes. If there is any of the mixture left over that would not fit in the dish then it's tasty to just eat as is.
