Served as main course. Vegetarian dish.

2 1/2 Cup Milk

1 lb fresh Asparagus

1 1/2 Cup shredded Cheddar Cheese

4 beaten Eggs

8 Slices stale Bread

2 Tablespoon minced Onion

1 1/2 teaspoon Salt

1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper

2 Tablespoon melted Butter

Cook and drain asparagus. Remove crusts from bread slices and cut into cubes. Arrange half of bread in the bottom of a buttered 10 x 6 x 2-inch baking dish. Cover bread with asparagus cut in pieces (can use canned pieces rather than fresh or frozen, cooked asparagus). Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Cover with remaining bread. Beat eggs slightly and add milk, minced onion, seasonings and butter. Pour over mixture in dish. Let stand 20 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until puffed and lightly browned. Can substitute broccoli pieces for asparagus.
