 Throw this one into the trashy-eats category.  From "Betty Crocker's Cookbook, New and Revised Edition including Microwave recipes".  I made some of my own modifications, though.

CHICKEN-ASPARAGUS BAKE
1 package (10 ounces) frozen cut asparagus
1 package (3 ounces) smoked sliced chicken or turkey, cut up
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1 cup shredded process american cheese
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
Quick Cheese sauce (recipe below)

Cook asparagus as directed on package; drain.  Arrange asparagus in ungreased square baking dish, 8x8x2 inches.  Arrange chicken on asparagus; sprinkle with marjoram and sage.  Mix cheese, milk, and eggs.  Stir in flour, baking powder and salt; spread over chicken.  Cook uncovered in 350* oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.  Serve with Quick Cheese Sauce.  6 SERVINGS.

QUICK CHEESE SAUCE
1 can (11 ounces) condensed Cheddar cheese soup
1/3 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Heat ingredients just to boiling, stirring frequently.

The modifications I made were: I used fresh asparagus instead of frozen.  9 oz of smoked turkey deli meat instead of 3 oz.  I omitted the marjoram and used a sprinkle of rosemary and garlic instead.  I omitted the dry mustard from the cheese sauce and used a lot of lemon pepper instead, and stirred a little of the grated cheese I had left and an egg into the cheese sauce.  

I had this for dinner last night and it was pretty good, though I'm sure quite fattening.

The fact that this has things like asparagus and dried mustard puts it culinary lightyears ahead of my usual stash of trashy recipes. :-D
