Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 4 green onions, coarsely chopped
• 5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 2 (14 ounce) cans vegetable broth
• 1 ½ pounds asparagus, trimmed and coarsely chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Cook and stir garlic and green onions in saucepan until garlic is just golden, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Cook and stir asparagus with garlic and green onions until slightly softened, about 2 more minutes.

Step 4

Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until asparagus is tender, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 5

Pour soup into blender, filling no more than halfway full. Cover with a lid. Carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth.

Step 6

Transfer soup back to saucepan and reheat. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
