Mushroom And Asparagus Casserole Food

ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the asparagus to a large pot of boiling water, keeping the bundles together with rubber bands or string. Cook for a couple of minutes; the asparagus should be bright green and still crunchy. List the bundles out of the water and slice off the tough ends of the asparagus. Drop the trimmed ends back in the boiling water and lower to a simmer.
• Run the asparagus tops under cold water to stop the cooking.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the flour to make a roux. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk in the milk and 1 cup of the asparagus cooking liquid. Add the salt and continue cooking until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Add the grated Cheddar and cook, stirring, until melted, about 1 minute.
• Arrange the asparagus in the bottom of a 9-by-12-by-2-inch baking dish, alternating the stem ends so each serving includes both heads and stems. Thinly slice the hard-boiled eggs and arrange them over the asparagus. Pour the cheese sauce over the eggs and asparagus and sprinkle with the cracker crumbs. Bake until lightly browned and bubbles appear around the edges, about 20 minutes.

ASPARAGUS, MUSHROOM AND TOMATO BAKE WITH SEASONED CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Cover a baking pan or cookie sheet with foil (for easy cleanup).
• Drizzle the olive oil over the mushrooms and asparagus and gently toss to coat them.
• Put the mushrooms in the center of the pan; arrange the asparagus on both sides of the mushrooms with tips pointing in both directions on both sides of the mushrooms; reserve the tomatoes at this point.
• Bake the mushrooms and asparagus in the oven for about 15-20 minutes.
• Scatter the tomatoes over top of asparagus; drizzling a touch of olive oil over the top of the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle a touch of sea salt over top of tomatoes and asparagus and bake for approximately another 10 minutes. Make sure to check your asparagus and mushrooms to desired tenderness.
• For the sauce:
• Pour the milk into a medium sized saucepan.
• Make an 'ornament' with the onion, bay leaf and clove by using the clove to pierce the bay leaf and then poke the bay leaf into the onion; add your 'ornament' to the milk in the saucepan.
• Warm the milk gently over low heat, to infuse the flavors, until it just begins to boil; cover and let rest for about 15 minutes or so while you follow the next step.
• In another medium saucepan melt the butter over low heat; mix in the flour and cook for a couple of minutes stirring constantly.
• Add the milk to the butter/flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time; cook and stir until all the milk has been added.
• For a stronger flavor in your sauce you can add the onion from the milk mixture at this point.
• Cook over low heat until thick, about 20-25 minutes; stirring occasionally so it doesn't burn on the bottom.
• Once the sauce has thickened remove the onion, and add salt and pepper to taste; leaving the sauce over very low heat.
• Stir in the cream (if using) to give a silky texture to the sauce. You don't have to use it all depending on the thickness of your sauce; keeping in mind the cheese will also thicken the sauce further.
• Add the mustard and cheese to the sauce until the cheese is melted; BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO LET BOIL!. The cheese will separate and it will not look appealing.
• Drizzle the Cheese Sauce over top of the baked vegetables and serve.
