Lemon Asparagus Casserole

    This made a light dinner for us last night. I halved the recipe and used an 8x8 baking dish without trouble. I doubled the amount of lemon zest but still didn't notice a prominent lemon flavor. I also subbed out the heavy cream for milk and added a little corn starch to thicken the sauce. The topping was very yummy!
