Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter olive oil for dairy-free
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 lb asparagus chopped (save a few tips if you'd like them for garnish)
- 1 lb white potatoes chopped
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
- Optional: ½ cup spinach or parsley for color
- salt and pepper to taste
- Juice from ½ lemon optional
Instructions
- Heat the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, or until it is translucent and soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Add the asparagus, potatoes, and stock to the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
- Add the spinach (if using) to the pot then blend the soup either with an immersion blender or carefully in small batches in a blender. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using, stir in the lemon juice.
