Asparagus soup.

Eat your veggies.  A simple commandment.  Yet so difficult at times... especially when carbs and delicious fats are present. 


I have good new for you.  Spelled S-O-U-P.  Filled to the brim with nutritious and satisfying asparagus. 

Creamy Asparagus Soup.

Recipe for 4 (i.e. for 2)

1/2 lb asparagus 

1 3/4 cup vegetable broth

1/4 cup half & half

2 tbsp flour

2 tbsp butter 

1/4 tsp salt 

1/8 tsp black pepper 

Begin by snapping off the ends of the washed asparagus.  Cut into 1 inch or smaller pieces. Saute with 3/4 cup of vegetable broth in a medium skillet for around 7 min. or until tender.  In a saucepan melt butter, remove from heat and stir in flour.  Once smooth, gradually add the remaining one cup of broth and return to heat.  Once thickened, add cream, salt and pepper.  Then add in the asparagus and remaining liquid.  Serve hot.  

Enjoy spoonfuls of veggies.
