  • “Made this to go with a smoked ham and recipe#239960 when we had company.I wanted something differant to do with asparagus and this was perfect.I made it the night before and just took out of the fridge and popped in the oven before dinner and that made for an easy dish that allowed me more time to visit with guest.I agree that 4 eggs are plenty and I used panko instead of cornflakes as that’s what I had.Thanks old1, for posting.”

  • “I’m not usually an asparagus eater but received some in my vegetable box so decided to try this recipe out.I only used 4 hard boiled eggs and, as I didn’t have any cornflakes, substituted this for some fresh breadcrumbs mixed up with a little bit of grated cheese. The results were superb. Really delicious! Can’t wait to try it again.”

  • “Delicious!The cheese sauce was exceptional. I found that 4 hard boiled eggs were more than enough, so I stopped there (sliced 3, chopped the 4th and spread over the top), then poured the sauce over and topped with the corn flakes.Great new way to serve asparagus — DH particularly liked this one!Thanks for such a great recipe.Dianne “
