How to make asparagus quiche:

Cut eight Asparagus spears into 4 inch pieces; cut remaining spears into 2 inch pieces. Cook all of the asparagus in a small amount of water until tender; drain and set aside. Line the unpricked Pastry Shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450 for 5 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Remove from the oven and set aside. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt Butter; stir in Flour and Salt. Gradually add milk; cook and stir until thickened. Stir a small amount into eggs; return all to pan. Stir in Cheese and 1/2 inch Asparagus pieces. Pour into crust. Sprinkle with Bread Crumbs. Bake at 400 for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Arrange the 4 inch Asparagus pieces in a spoke pattern on top. Yield: 6 - 8 servings.
