So I had some fresh broccoli and asparagus that I didn't think I would use before it went bad. So I got to thinking and thought that the combination would be good. This is the recipe.
Cream of Broccoli & Asparagus Soup
¾ cup diced red onion
1 cup diced celery
(sauté for a few minutes in butter and olive oil and salt & pepper)
Add
4 cup broccoli pieces
2 ½ cup asparagus pieces
Cook for about 5-10 minutes
Add
5 cups chicken broth
Simmer for about 30 minutes until the veggies are tender
Place all ingredients in blender (in batches)
Add
2 cups milk
1/3 cup flour
Simmer for 10 minutes
Add some pepper to taste
Add ½ package of cream cheese

Omg, you are either a genius or we both have weird tastes. I also have B & A on hand and thought they should make a good soup.I would not have thought of the cream cheese, but as it turns out I have a little of that in need of use . I will try it right now.
I love this recipe. We've made it a number of times, and are preparing it tonight!
