Cream of Mushroom soup discussion could not be complete with the recipe that either makes you cringe or go mmmmmmmm in my house. Some people make a green bean casserole with mushroom soup and onions on top, all well and good. (though just when did it become a classic holiday dish?)In my home, growing up, and until my blended family led their evil revolt against it…the holiday classic, particularly for Easter…was “Cheese Nip Casserole.”

You take a few cans of asparagus. Chopped works great and you usually find the chopped asparagus at a lower price. Drain the asparagus. Add a can of cream of mushroom soup. Top with crushed Cheese Nips/Cheez-its. Bake until warm and bubbly.
