Soups
Old fashioned, but nonetheless still tasty! This delicious asparagus soup is also super healthy. I'd certainly make this soup when the asparagus are in season if I were you. No meat is used in this recipe which makes it very suitable for vegetarians. The only change that has to be made is to replace the chicken stock with vegetable stock.
