Rachael Ray: Velvet Asparagus Soup
This Rachael Ray recipe has caught my eye several times. I was so worried to try it. Last year the husband and I visited Puerto Vallarta, at the steak restaurant there we had cream of asparagus soup. I don’t like asparagus, I know it is good for you, and it is something that I should eat, but I just can’t do it. Well, I was cooking this up and my husband looked in the pan and said, is that asparagus? I said yes, I’m making soup, and you’re going to try it! Well I loved this soup, it was so delicious. If you like cream of broccoli soup, you’ll like this one. So I encourage you to give this soup a try, I think you’ll be in for a surprise!

Total Time: 20 minutes
Husband Says: “It was pretty good. Creamy. Better then I thought it would be since I’m not a big asparagus fan.”
Notes: I did everything as the recipe says, but I didn’t make anything look too pretty. I didn’t save the tips from the asparagus to put as a garnish. I really wanted to forget what I was eating. Everything else I did as Rachael says, again, it was delicious! Give it a try! I also did not use white wine, just plain old water.
