Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Wash and trim asparagus; cut stalks into pieces and set tips aside.
  2. In large, non-stick saucepan, heat oil; saute garlic, onion, leeks, and asparagus stalks just until softened, approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Add stock and potatoes; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  4. Puree in food processor until smooth OR cook a little longer until potatoes begin to break apart and forego the processing (personally I prefer the chunkier consistency).
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  6. Return to saucepan (if you chose to process the mixture).
  7. Steam reserved asparagus tips until just tender (approx. 2 mins); add to soup.
  8. ENJOY! :-).
