Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup margarine
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups water
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed chicken broth
4 tablespoons chicken bouillon powder
1 potato, peeled and diced
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and coarsely chopped
¾ cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon soy sauce

¼ teaspoon ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Melt butter or margarine in a heavy cooking pot. Add onions and chopped celery; saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in flour, mixing well. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Do not burn, or let it go lumpy. Add water, chicken broth, and chicken soup base; stir until smooth. Bring to a boil. Add diced potatoes and chopped asparagus. Reduce heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • Puree soup in a food processor or blender in batches. Return to pot.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I usually roast a bunch of asparagus for dinner and then use the leftovers to make this soup. It's a great way to get a healthy meal on the table quickly and easily.
