Creamy Spring Asparagus Soup
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 large leek, white part only
- 1 quart vegetable broth
- 1 bunch (1 lb.) of asparagus
- 1/3 cup plain almond milk (optional)
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Trim leek and cut in half lengthwise. Rinse out any dirt trapped inside and slice into 1 inch pieces. Place olive oil in a large saucepan over low heat, then saute leek for 5–10 minutes until tender. Add vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Trim asparagus, cutting off the bottom inch and peeling any stalks that seem tough or woody. Cut into 1 inch pieces and add to broth, reducing heat to a simmer. Gently cook for 10–15 minutes until asparagus are tender. In batches, puree the soup in a food processor or blender until smooth (be careful when blending hot liquids in a blender. Blend in small batches). Return to saucepan and bring back to a boil. Remove from heat and whisk in plain almond milk. Season with salt and pepper.
