Overall, this soup is a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It's flavorful and comforting, and it's a great way to use up leftover asparagus.

The soup was delicious, but it took a bit longer to make than the recipe said. I had to simmer it for an extra 10 minutes to get the asparagus to soften.

The soup was a bit too thick for my liking. I added some milk to thin it out, and it was perfect.

I found the soup to be a bit bland. I added some salt and pepper to taste, and it was much better.

This soup is a bit too rich for my taste. I would recommend using less cream or adding some water to thin it out.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I substituted almond milk for the cream. It turned out just as delicious!

I'm not a huge fan of asparagus, but this soup was surprisingly delicious. The cream and Parmesan cheese really mellowed out the asparagus flavor.
