Delicious! Try Making Asparagus Soup


One thing Keeki™ loves about about living on a farm... fresh, from-scratch meals. Here's an easy one you can make at home with Mom and Dad!

Once you've tried it, don't forget to let Keeki™ know how it turned out in comments!



Asparagus Soup:

8 Tbs. (1 stick) Butter
3 1/2 - 4 cups chopped onions 8 Cups Chicken Stock
2 Lbs. Asparagus
Salt and Pepper to taste
Fresh Lemon Zest & juice to taste
Chopped Fresh Thyme to taste

Heat butter in soup pot; add onions, and cook until tender. Add stock; bring to boil. Cut tips off asparagus; reserve. Chop stems and add to pot. Simmer gently until asparagus is very tender, 15-20 mins. Puree in a blender and return to pot. Add tips cook gently 5-10 minutes. Add salt & pepper, lemon zest & lemon juice and fresh thyme. Makes 8-10 servings.
