Asparagus

Do you like Asparagus?

Andrew and I went and did some grocery shopping today at Wegmans. Being a Saturday afternoon there were a ton of people, and also sample time.

 We tried this Asparagus soup that was AMAZING! I HAD to make it!

Wegmans Asparagus Soup

1 small white onion (dice)

1T pure olive oil

32oz Vegetable Stock

1lb asparagus (cut into 1in)

salt and pepper

1/2t Vogel Herbamare Herb Seasoning Salt (Nature's Marketplace)

 1. Add diced onion and olive oil to a stockpot on medium/low. Cook for about 10 min. until the onions are soft and translucent.

2. Add vegetable stock and asparagus.

3. Season with salt and pepper

4. Bring to a boil on High then reduce to simmer for about 5 min. until asparagus is tender.

5. Remove pot from heat. Puree soup with a hand blender (I used our Ninja) until smooth. Season with the herb seasoning.

5. Garnish with Creme Fraiche or Parmigiano-Reggiano.

This soup is AMAZING!!! It was SO EASY. It only took me less than 30 minutes start to finish. I realize the picture looks kind of nasty...  but it was the best I could do!

 Mmmmm.... tell me what you think!
