Creamy Asparagus Soup


Creamy Asparagus Soup

1 lb. fresh asparagus
4 cups water
4 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
Sour cream
Fresh Dill

Wash asparagus and cut ends. Cut the stalks into 1" pieces and cook in a small amount of water for 15-17 minutes; drain. In a blender, puree the cooked stalks with about 3-4 tbsp. of the broth. Combine the puree and broth in a pot and cook over low heat, stirring. Right before you are about to serve, add in the heavy cream. Ladle soup into bowls, top with freshly chopped dill and a dollop of sour cream.

*Johnna's tip: Sprinkle in a little garlic powder...garlic makes everything better!
