Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

• Meanwhile steam asparagus for 2-3 minutes
• For Bechamel
• Warm the milk in the microwave
• In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat
• When the butter is melted, add the flour and whisk until everything is incorporated and the flour is cooked (about 45 seconds to 1 minute)
• Add the warm milk and whisk vigorously to avoid lumps
