Ingredients
- 2 lbs asparagus, stems trimmed and discarded
- 2 tablespoon vegan butter (or ghee for only dairy-free)
- ½ onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- ½ cup original Nutpods or full-fall coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Slice off about a half inch of the asparagus tips into thin pieces. Set these aside. Cut the rest of the asparagus into one inch pieces.
- Melt the ghee over medium heat in a Dutch oven or medium pot.
- Add chopped onion and garlic and cook until soft and fragrant. About 5 minutes.
- Add the one inch pieces of the asparagus to the pot. Season with a dash of salt and pepper.
- Pour in the broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the asparagus is tender.
- Set aside and cool for 10 minutes.
- Puree the soup in a blender (use caution when blending hot liquids) or in the same pot using an immersion blender.
- Return the soup to the pot.
- Warm over low heat and add in reserved asparagus tips. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Turn off heat and mix in the cream and lemon juice (if using).
- Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
Notes
- If dairy is not a problem for you, use evaporated milk or heavy cream instead of the Nutpods or coconut milk.
- For a non-vegan version, you can use chicken broth. If doing Whole30, just be sure to use a compatible broth.
- Ghee or regular butter are also great substitutes for vegan butter for a non-vegan version.
