Say hello to your new best fall-weather friend —> creamy asparagus soup. If that purdy bright green-yellow color isn’t enough to get you on board, just wait til you hear that there’s parmesan cheese and a hint of lemon in that soup. Okay now you’re excited, I can tell. Oh, a bit of good news too! So our kitchen floor has healed much, much better than expected. After that water incident I told you about, the one that happened the very day after we got out new appliances (such luck right?), we were fairly sure we’d be extending the kitchen remodel to include a floor project which, let’s be honest, would be a real bummer now that everything else is DONE. But like I said, the floors have healed so much better than we thought they would, hardly any warping at all! (Happy dance commences….NOW.) The only thing that could make me happier would be to say that I’ve been using my gorgeous new stainless steel appliances this week but, I haven’t. We’ve been bombarded with stormy weather galore and for natural light photographer, super gloomy skies make for disaster in the photo department. So while the cozy-fall-sweater-loving part of me is elated about the weather, the cook-and-photograph-loving part is a little disappointed. I did however, snag a few shots of this creamy asparagus soup for you! I whipped this up a few days ago and we had leftovers again last night – SO so good. And healthy you guys. Not real heavy on the cream side – it’s lighter but still creamy and cheesy and wonderful. Feel free to add a little (or a lot) more lemon if you want to really bring that flavor out in the soup. And top it off with as much or as little parmesan cheese as your little heart desires. It’s soup season – let’s CELEBRATE!
What people are saying about this Asparagus Parmesan Soup
“Best asparagus soup ever! WOW, an explosion of flavors for the palate! I added a splash of white wine, omitted the salt, used my immersion blender (LOVE IT), and added fresh ground pepper. OMG! Thank you, thank you thank you!!! My first time making asparagus soup simply because it needed to be used, and it didn’t seem fresh enough for the usual recipes. Since I have trouble throwing away food, I opted to make soup. SO glad I did!” – Debby “It turned out absolutely amazing! I will definitely be making this again. I topped with crumbled bacon and served with a garlic loaf. Delish!” – Amber “I adjusted slightly just due to what I had on hand. Used about 1/2 as much cheese and added some fresh thyme. It was super delicious…. Really fresh tasting. I made it for dinner on its own. But, would be a great starter soup. What a delicious way to eat more veggies. Thanks for the recipe.” – Sarah “Made this soup tonight. It was delicious. Thanks for the recipe!” – Lynnda
