Definitely needs some garlic and more chicken broth. And salt and pepper.
This was delicious! I did roast the asparagus and potato for extra flavor and I added fresh dill at the end. I ate it for dinner last night and lunch today. I love it!
Absolutely delicious! I'm on a low carb diet and sick of eating eggs for breakfast.. my next favorite thing to eat is soup. Browned some bacon bits in the pan and then removed them before putting the veg in. I used red onion and some spring onions I had left over in the fridge.. Also added a garlic clove. This turned out fabulous! Used bacon bits on top instead of the croutons.
I substituted a small white onion for the shallot and added garlic powder savory seasoning chili powder pepper 3 tbs wasabi horseradish and a splash of Worcester sauce and white wine vinegar and topped with croutons and cheddar cheese and fresh ground pepper. Loved this asparagus recipe!
This soup was great and very filling. After reading a couple reviews I added in some spices - I put a little more horseradish in plus sprinkled in cayenne pepper black pepper red pepper flakes oregano and Tuscan seasoning. I didn't put a whole lot of any of these spices in (I don't like it to be too spicy) but it definitely did the trick it was tasty and not too much spice just enough to leave an aftertaste. This was just enough for a two person meal with some bread but it could be 4-6 servings if it was just a first course.
I will make this again I made this soup tonight. The asparagus had a really nice flavor. But for my family it was a bit bland. So I in this round I already added three cloves of minced garlic so when I make it again because it was so easy I will add more spice aka heat to it. But I love how quickly it can get to the table that is a total bonus point. I also love that there is no added dairy or flour. Perfect recipe for a gluten/dairy free household. Pros: Fast and easy to get to the table Cons: A tad bland.
Better with a bit of bacon and chives This soup was okay as is. But it was great with a bit of bacon and chives. Served with Spinach candied pecans pears/cranberry salad. Also offered baguette for those who are not gluten-free (GF). Pros: Quick Easy dairy-free gluten-free Cons: A bit flat until you add the bacon & chives
