Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray
2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed
⅔ cup gluten-free bread crumbs
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup raw cashews
1 cup chicken broth
¼ cup nutritional yeast
¾ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg white
2 tablespoons bacon bits
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
2 teaspoons dairy-free margarine, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 7 x 11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
  • Combine bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast in a bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the bread crumb mixture on the bottom of the prepared baking dish; top with asparagus spears and season lightly with salt. Reserve remaining bread crumbs for the topping.
  • Combine raw cashews, chicken broth, 1/4 cup nutritional yeast, garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a small food processor or blender. Blend at medium-high speed until mixture is smooth, about 3 minutes. Add egg white and blend at medium-high speed for 1 more minute.
  • Spread blended contents evenly over the asparagus spears, and top with bacon, sliced almonds, and reserved bread crumbs. Drizzle melted margarine over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the center rack until top is lightly browned and casserole has set, about 30 minutes.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had some leftover asparagus from a previous meal, and this was a great way to use it up.

I made this casserole in a 9x13 inch baking dish instead of a 8x8 inch baking dish. It turned out just as good.

I'm not usually a fan of asparagus, but this casserole changed my mind. The nutty flavor of the asparagus paired perfectly with the creamy sauce.
