I absolutely love fixing recipes that are not only easy and quick to prepare but are delicious and satisfying as well.  And I am particularly fond of casseroles….particularly during the cooler months of the year! This chicken rice and asparagus casserole is simple and delicious too! I don’t really use asparagus much. But I was intrigued by the idea of pairing these ingredients.

It is based on an old recipe that I had in my recipe box. I think it probably came from an old magazine and was passed down to me from my mother. The original called for canned condensed soup. But now, I’ve changed it to include homemade cream of mushroom soup which is much more whole food-oriented. Of course, not everyone is going to want to make homemade cream of mushroom…and that’s okay! Feel free to use a good organic cream of mushroom instead. There are some really great ones on the market. Just look for a brand that is clean and doesn’t have a lot of extra additives! Completely yummy!

Make this chicken rice and asparagus casserole recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free cream of mushroom soup! If you use homemade, grain-free cream of mushroom soup, you can technically make this dish grain-free as well!

Need a good side dish? Try this fall harvest salad!

    I have made this twice. The first time I followed the recipe exactly and it was very bland. The second time I made it I sliced the asparagus, added salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder, rotisserie chicken, soup, rice and Cajun seasoning, mixed everything together and put it in the casserole pan and topped with the cheese. It was much better. 4.7 stars the 2nd time around. Thanks for the recipe
