Asparagus Soup

SUBMITTED BY: Pyromommy  PHOTO BY: PAMELA D. 

"Velvety asparagus soup, lovely green color, great with crunchy rolls. My friend gave me this recipe, it originally used chicken broth. When my daughter became vegetarian, I modified it with vegetable broth instead! It also doubles easily. This soup will tempt even asparagus haters!"
