  Place the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bacon and cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes or until the onion is soft. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until the mixture bubbles. Remove from heat. Gradually add half the milk, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until smooth. Stir in the remaining milk. Place over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in the egg, corn and half the parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the lettuce and tortilla baskets among serving plates. Divide the egg mixture among the baskets. Top with the asparagus. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley to serve.
