Creamed Ham and Asparagus image

To be truthful, asparagus is my least favorite vegetable. But I make an exception with this recipe my mom and I came up with together. The ham and cheese really lend a tasty difference. Now that our parents are retired, my brothers and I have taken over the family farm. We milk 200 Holsteins.

I'm not usually a fan of creamed dishes, but this one was surprisingly good. The asparagus was still slightly crunchy, which I liked, and the ham was very flavorful. The sauce was also very good, and it wasn't too heavy. I would definitely make this
