 Ingredients
     
2 (8 ounce) packages whipped cream cheese spread
1 (11 ounce) can condensed cheese soup
2 (4 ounce) cans shirmp, drained
3 (15 ounce) cans asparagus, drained

Use a spatula to spread the soup around evenly. Be careful not to tear asparagus. Make sure there is at least 1/2 an inch of space between the top of the ingredients and the top of casserole dish because the casserole will boil while cooking.
