Fresh Asparagus Soup


I haven't tried this yet, but it came to my inbox today and i wanted to share it. It looks like a creamy and delicious soup, and i didn't even have to modify much to make it dairy-free. I love the additions of yogurt, lemon, and parmesan cheese! It's from nanook at allrecipes.com.

Steps


Place asparagus and onion in a saucepan with 1 / 2 cup vegetable broth.
Bring the broth to a boil , reduce heat and let simmer until the vegetables are tender.
Reserve a few asparagus.
Melt margarine in the pan that was used for simmering the asparagus and onions.
Stir while sprinkling flour , salt , and pepper into the margarine.
Do not let the flour brown.
Allow the mixture to cook only 2 minutes.
Stir in remaining 1 1 / 4 cups vegetable broth and increase the heat.
Continue stirring until the mixture comes to a boil.
Stir the vegetable puree and soy milk into the saucepan.
Whisk soy yogurt into the mixture , followed by lemon juice.
Stir until heated through , then ladle into bowls.
Garnish with reserved asparagus.
