Grease the bottom of a large casserole dish (13X9 works well). Place a single layer of bread in the pan, using 1/2 the bread. Cover with 1/2 asparagus, cheese, tomatoes, chives and pine nuts. Repeat layers, starting with bread. In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour evenly over layers. Cover and Refrigerate overnight. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove cover and bake for 1 hour until puffy and brown or internal temperature reaches 145 degrees. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
