A delicious soup that is quick and easy to make. Serves 6.
3 leeks (chopped)
3 tablespoons butter
4 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 pounds fresh asparagus (chopped)
2 cups potatoes (peeled and diced)
1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon parsley (minced)
Over medium high heat, saute the leeks in the butter. Mix in the chicken broth, asparagus, potatoes and pepper and bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to simmer. Cook for ten min. or until done.
Using a food processor, blend the mixture (not at all at once), and return to the pan. Stir in the milk and simmer until hot, garnish with fresh parsley.
