How to Make Creamy Asparagus Soup

  1. Step 1

    Cut the asparagus in 3-inch pieces and reserve some tips for garnish. In a large pot, add asparagus pieces, onion, oil, chicken broth and skim milk.

  2. Step 2

    Cook mixture, over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until asparagus is very tender. Add black pepper to taste. In a blender or food processor, purée mixture in batches until smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Transfer to a bowl (use caution when handling hot liquids) and whisk in yogurt and lemon juice. Garnish with reserved asparagus tips.
