So quick and yummy! I used whole milk, doubled the butter, and used a four cheese Italian blend to top it off. Really wonderful, and great for my pre-diabetes diet. -
Very nice for a lunch. We started on the SBD again and so I used 1% milk and sour cream instead of butter. Good for this rainy cool day. Thanks for posting. -
Awesome! I wanted a quick but healthy lunch today because Im going to dinner with my family tonight for my dads birthday. This was just the ticket Kit! I used milk instead of cream and also used the parm cheese. It really added alot to the flavor. Thanks :) -
I think next time I make this I'll steam some fresh or frozen asparagus as the canned made it too salty for my taste. But I'm looking forward to making it again! -

Great recipe. It's a quick and easy way to have a nice asparagus soup. :) I used 1/2 cup skim milk and 1/2 cup evapourated skim milk in place of the half and half. I also omitted the butter and in place stirred in a few dabbles of light sour cream right before serving. Not only did these few minor tweaks save me a few calories but it also helped make it creamy and delicious. Overall, great recipe though. (even as is!) I gave it to my Mom and it's now one of her staples, along w/ my famous tofu and corn chowder.
