Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. During the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the asparagus and let cook as well. Drain and toss to fully mix the pasta and asparagus and place in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.

In a large frying pan or sauce pan, heat oil. Once hot, add garlic and let cook for about a minute.

Add in the milk, chicken broth, flour, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until sauce thickens; About ten minutes. {To make this go by quicker, crank up the heat, but make sure to keep a close eye on it because milk burns super easy!}

Once sauce has thickened, add the parmesan and mix until combined.

Pour the sauce over the pasta and asparagus and mix until fully coated.

Top with the bread crumbs and bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until the crumbs have lightly browned.
