Provided by Minimalist Baker

Categories     Soup

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 Tbsp olive or avocado oil
12 ounces asparagus ((trimmed // 1 large bundle yields ~12 ounces) )
10 ounces fresh or frozen peas ((2 cups yield ~10 ounces) )
4 cloves garlic ((minced))
1 medium shallot ((thinly sliced))
Salt + Pepper
1 1/2 cups Almond Breeze unsweetened plain almond milk
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth (DIY or store-bought)
1-2 Tbsp nutritional yeast ((optional // for a slightly cheesy flavor))
1/2 medium lemon ((optional // juiced // for brightness))
2 cups bread ((any kind // cubed))
1/4 cup olive oil ((or other neutral oil))
1/4 tsp each garlic powder, salt + pepper, dried oregano, dried basil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and spread asparagus on a bare baking sheet. Drizzle with oil of choice and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Roast for 15 minutes, then set aside. If making croutons, reduce heat to 325 degrees F at this time.
  • Heat a large saucepan or pot medium heat. Once hot, add 2 Tbsp oil (amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) and shallot and garlic. Season lightly with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant and translucent. Reduce heat if garlic begins browning.
  • Add peas, vegetable broth and almond milk and season with salt and pepper once more.
  • Transfer soup to blender (that is safe for blending hot liquids - it should have a lid that allows steam to escape) along with asparagus (reserve some for garnish if desired). Blend soup until creamy and smooth. Transfer back to pot and bring to medium heat and simmer.
  • Add nutritional yeast and whisk. Continue cooking until warmed through and simmering, then reduce heat to low.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt and pepper if desired. Remove from heat and add lemon juice.
  • If serving with croutons, prep while soup is simmering by lowering oven heat to 325 degrees F.
  • Add bread crumbs to a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil and seasonings and pour over bread crumbs and toss to combine. Season once more with a bit more garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss once more.
  • Spread on a clean baking sheet (or the one you used earlier) and bake or 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Flip/stir at the 10-minute mark to ensure even baking.
  • Serve soup with croutons, a touch of black pepper, and/or vegan parmesan cheese. Leftovers keep covered in the fridge for up to a few days, though best when fresh.

BAREFOOT CONTESSA'S FRESH PEA SOUP



Barefoot Contessa's Fresh Pea Soup image

Earlier, I had posted Recipe #285307 after watching an episode of Ina Garten's show on the FoodNetwork. Now, I have finally tried the Fresh Pea Soup from that airing and found that I love it, as well. I prepared this with frozen peas, and while the original recipe did call for mint, I didn't have any on hand and omitted it. Pea soup may make some people's heads spin, but this is so good. Pairing with the flavorful Roasted Red Pepper Sandwich would be an incredible meal.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, seasonal ingredients: This will give your soup the best flavor. Spring peas, asparagus, and potatoes are all at their peak in the spring.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: You want them to be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste: Start with a little salt and pepper, then add more to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish: This could be something simple like chopped fresh parsley or chives, or something more elaborate like a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of crumbled bacon.

Conclusion:

This spring pea soup with asparagus and potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up fresh spring vegetables. With its vibrant green color and fresh, springtime flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
