I had some wonderful asparagus that I found at a farmer's market that I wanted to use as a main dish. I found a recipe for an asparagus casserole that looked intriguing. I didn't have as much fresh asparagus as the recipe called for, so I decided to add green beans to the mix, along with a few other items to really give this casserole a bit more substance. This was the best casserole of any kind that I think I've ever had. My husband hasn't been able to stop eating it either, even the next day!

Steps:
- Place asparagus spears into a large skillet and pour in about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, cover skillet, and steam until the asparagus is very tender, about 20 minutes, adding more water if needed. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Lay the asparagus into the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
- Whisk together cream of mushroom soup and chicken broth in a bowl; pour half the soup mixture over the asparagus.
- Sprinkle in half the diced ham.
- Spread cracker crumbs evenly over the ham.
- Spread green beans over the cracker crumbs.
- Pour remaining soup mixture over the casserole and sprinkle on the remaining ham.
- Arrange French-fried onions over the top of the casserole, and cover the casserole with a lid.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven, and sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the casserole in an even layer.
- Return to oven without covering casserole; bake until the cheese is melted, another 5 minutes.
