This soup was easy to make and turned out great! I used sharp cheddar cheese and it gave the soup a nice sharp flavor. The asparagus was cooked perfectly and the soup was creamy and flavorful.

I'm not a huge fan of asparagus, but this soup was surprisingly good. The cheese sauce was really flavorful and the asparagus was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this soup again.
