Yummy! Just like I remember my mom making it when I was a kid too! Thanks!
I'm still not sure if it was totally great idea but what I decided to do with this recipe was to roast the asparagus, (which is on sale now) covered with bacon slices and I roasted it all at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. At that point, the asparagus was nicely done, but the bacon wasn't. So, I put the bacon back in and roasted it for another 15 minutes until it was crisp. At that point, I then poured the bacon drippings into a saute pan and I made the roux. Once it was thickened enough, I topped my toasted bread slices with the roasted asparagus, followed by the roux, my now crumbled bacon, and just a few shreds of cheese. It was absolutely delicious! I will do it again but next time I will roast the asparagus separately from the bacon because of those pesky differences in cooking times. Haha.
Made this for hubby and I with freshly picked asparagus. Yummy!! Tasted just like his Gram's. One added step I'll take for next batch is to cut the asparagus before boiling. If that was in the steps, I missed it, but would make eating a little easier. Really tasty!!
I added 1/2 an onion with the asparagus, but I put in frying pan and slowly cooked till bright green and onion just cooked plus curry I use a curry mix it was so tasty .
Made this and only thing I changed was I put it over an English muffin instead of toast. Loved it!!
Made it 5+ times and love it! Used it like a gravy with roast beef! Super good, boyfriend asks for it all the time!!
Tasted great. Added a handful of grated cheddar. Made the cleanup a bit more difficult but worth it. Chopped asparagus into segments before adding to sauce.
Yumm just like Mom's. Thank you!
Followed this recipe exactly and felt like I was back at my grandmother's table as a a kid! The husband loves it topped with a fried egg. We'll be making this for years to come.
Did not have much flavor. Sharon
