Description

This casserole tastes wonderful, even if you don't like asparagus. My family swore that they did not like asparagus but they like this casserole. Serve over rice. This dish can be made ahead and frozen.

Ingredients
  • 6 cooked boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans asparagus spears, drained
  • ½ cup margarine

  • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
  • ¾ cup evaporated milk
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers
